Since she rejected a plea bargain, attorneys will get together in two weeks to pick a date for her trial.

While in court Wednesday, Mems' defense team asked the judge to remove her electronic monitoring device and instead place her on house arrest.

"I'd have a concern for the public safety, so electronic monitoring is going to stay in place," Judge Keith Gregory ruled.
