COEUR d'ALENE - The second trial for Jonathan W. Ellington, of Hayden, in Kootenai County will not start Monday.
It has been rescheduled for Nov. 29, as lawyers were not ready to proceed.
The 50-year-old Ellington's first jury trial in August 2006 ended in conviction on charges of second-degree murder and two counts of aggravated battery. The Idaho Supreme Court threw the convictions out in May and granted him a new trial.
The charges stemmed from a road-rage incident.
The second trial is expected to last two to three weeks.
He's currently being held in Kootenai County jail.
