Two court proceedings for a 55-year-old Marshall man who was charged with murder late last year are scheduled to be held on Monday, July 22.
James Scott Miller has been charged in connection with the shooting death of 31-year-old Joshua Charles Smith, of Marshall, on December 29, 2018.
Online court documents say Miller is facing a Class A Felony for Second-Degree Murder and an Unclassified Felony for Armed Criminal Action. He originally posted $500,000 cash-only bond on January 2; but he was arrested for violation of his bond conditions on January 24. On February 20, Miller posted an additional $250,000 cash or surety bond.
Miller pleaded not guilty on March 11.
A case review is scheduled to be held at Saline County Circuit Court and a motion hearing at Lafayette County Circuit Court at 1:15 p.m.
Court documents also say Miller’s jury trial that was scheduled to be held July 23-26 has been canceled.
