SANTA FE, N.M.—A New Mexico judge plans to rule Friday on a request to dismiss the sole charge against Alec Baldwin in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer over concerns the FBI damaged the firearm during forensic testing before defense attorneys could examine it.
Defense attorneys for Alec Baldwin have asked Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer to scuttle the case against Mr. Baldwin ahead of what would be a high-profile trial starting in July.
