Preliminary hearing set for Brendan Phillips, a 21 year old charged with oral copulation and statutory rape of minor victims

Basically, the disposition and reset was scheduled. Today in court, Deputy District Attorney Jackie Pizzo appeared on behalf of Ms. Bennett for the People in Courtroom 2. Mr. Benjamin Okin who represents Brendan Phillips and has been communicating with Ms. Bennett said that "the People are requesting to set the preliminary hearing."

Mr. Okin then told Judge Marilyn Miles that he "won't have certain documents from the doctor until mid-September and that this case may resolve" once he has those documents and gives them to the People. Then, Mr. Okin suggested that the intervention hearing be set for mid-September and a preliminary hearing set for mid-October.

Judge Miles asked if the victims and their parents had been notified since this would extend when the preliminary hearing was held. Ms. Pizzo was not sure; then Judge Miles asked if there were emails between the People and the defense and Mr. Okin indicated yes.

Judge Miles again stressed that the victims be informed, if they did not already know.

Intervention is on September 24 at 3 p.m. and Preliminary hearing is on October 14 at 8:30 a.m.
