ASAP Rocky's Shooting Trial Moved To 2025 To Allow For Rolling Loud Performance

Judge agrees to push back Rocky’s shooting trial

A$AP Rocky‘s upcoming trial regarding two felony counts of assault involving a semi-automatic firearm has been moved to 2025 because he has to perform at the Rolling Loud on the previously scheduled date of November 12.

New date for A$AP Rocky's trial is January 21.

Prosecutor wants to make sure the date works for all witnesses.

"I want to go forward on January the 21st," Judge Mark Arnold says.

"I agree," Deputy District Attorney Paul Przelomiec says.

Law reporter Meghann Cuniff was present during the pretrial conference of the Harlem born rapper held on October 22. She was informed that the request made by Rocky’s lawyer Joe Tacopina to delay the trial had been granted by Judge Mark Arnold. The noted LA trial and the Rolling Loud Thailand event were scheduled at the same time for A$AP Rocky. The trial has now been moved to January 21.

Tacopina spoke with reporters outside the courthouse.

He said Judge Arnold agreed to delay the trial after learning of A$AP Rocky's concert in Thailand.

"If he said no, you know, Rocky would be here on November 12, obviously. I'd be here. But he was very accommodating." pic.twitter.com/swD5YWAwmb
