Nick Reiner’s arraignment on murder charges connected to the deaths of his parents—filmmaker Rob Reiner and Michele Singer Reiner—was postponed on Jan. 7 after his defense attorney Alan Jackson requested to withdraw from the case.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Theresa McGonigle approved Jackson’s request, assigned a public defender, and delayed the proceedings until Feb. 23. The hearing had been scheduled for Reiner to enter a plea more than three weeks after his arrest.
