Judge Gregory Carro adjourned the conference after about 20 minutes without publicly providing more details about the process for selecting jurors.
The Minnesota man who allegedly claimed to be an FBI agent and demanded Luigi Mangione's release from the federal jail in Brooklyn is considering whether to plead guilty.
Luigi Mangione asked a federal judge on Wednesday to postpone his trial on charges he stalked and killed United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson to early 2027.
Federal prosecutors in New York signaled in a letter to the court Friday that they would not appeal a judge's decision that removed the death penalty from consideration in the case against Luigi Mangione.
Luigi Mangione's state murder case is tentatively scheduled to begin on June 8, Judge Gregory Carro said on Friday.
Luigi Mangione has been called to court on February 6. The summons notification did not include a reason for the unexpected court appearance.
