Court is yet to decide on a magistrate to preside over the case against former Malaita premier Daniel Suidani and his former advisor Celsus Talifilu.
Furthermore, court is yet to set a date for trial for the case.
The matter was heard in court last week where the magistrate adjourned the case for April 9 (tomorrow) for setting of the new trial date.
Suidani and Talifilu are charged together with two counts of unlawful assembly and both pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The allegations said the two had a role in masterminding a number of unlawful assemblies and protest in Auki, Malaita Province in 2021.
Those unlawful assemblies and protects were alleged carried out by the Malaita for Democracy (M4D).
The two were arrested on October 3, 2024 and charged.
Mary-Anne Zurenuoc acts for the crown and Lilly Ramo represents both defendants.
