There was an arraignment at the Seminole County Courthouse Tuesday afternoon in the case against George Zimmerman, the man who shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin in February.
The judge has set the next date for the case against George Zimmerman and we could then find out when a trial might begin.
At Zimmerman's arraignment, Judge Kenneth Lester accepted Zimmerman's plea of not guilty to second degree murder.
Neither Zimmerman nor his attorney Mark O'Mara were present in the courtroom.
Also, Zimmerman's lawyer filed a motion for a continuance, saying he needed more time to work on the case. He also waived his right to a speedy trial.
The next date has been set for August 8 at 8:30 a.m.
