50-year old James Eugene Perkins is scheduled to go to trial in Supreme Court in Williams Lake on August 25, 2026.
Four weeks have been set aside.
Jury selection is set for the previous day.
Perkins is charged with first degree murder in connection with an incident on October 19, 2023.
100 Mile House RCMP say they received a 9-1-1 call for a report of what sounded like gunshots in an industrial area of the community.
Police responded and located a person with a gunshot wound who succumbed to their injuries.
A charge was approved two years later and Perkins was arrested without incident.
The investigation involved the North District Major Crime Unit, 100 Mile House RCMP and the Cariboo Crime Reduction Unit investigators.
