NEW YORK – A court is telling Ja Rule to book a date in New York City this summer — for a trial in his 3-year-old gun case.
A Manhattan judge on Tuesday set an Aug. 18 trial date for Ja Rule, whose real name is Jeffrey Atkins.
The judge had turned down the platinum-selling rapper's request for a hearing on scientific issues surrounding DNA evidence.
He has pleaded not guilty to weapon possession. Police said they found a loaded semiautomatic gun in his luxury sports car as he was being driven away from a July 2007 concert. (AP)
