A$AP Rocky has been ordered to return to court for a hearing to determine if he will stand trial for allegedly shooting former friend and rapper A$AP Relli in 2021.
The 34-year-old, who’s expecting his second child with superstar singer Rihanna, pleaded not guilty last August to two charges of assault with a semiautomatic firearm stemming from the incident – and faces up to four years in prison on each count if convicted.
Rocky, real name Rakim Mayers, has been out on $550,000 bail but was not present Tuesday at a Downtown Los Angeles criminal court where Judge Kerry White scheduled a preliminary hearing to be held on June 5.
