NEW YORK<\/strong> – Luigi Mangione<\/a>, the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson<\/a> in cold blood last year, is expected to appear in state court on Tuesday morning as his lawyers push to have his state murder charges thrown out.<\/p>\n

What could happen today inside the courtroom? <\/p>\n

Dig deeper:<\/p>\n

The appearance at 100 Centre Street in Lower Manhattan could bring Mangione to a trial date as he faces several state and federal charges. Also, what could be decided is whether the state case or federal case will go first.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mangione’s lawyers argue that the New York case and a parallel federal death penalty prosecution amount to double jeopardy. Mangione\u2019s lawyers say the dueling cases have created a “legal quagmire” that makes it “legally and logistically impossible to defend against them simultaneously.”<\/p>\n

Luigi Mangione, the man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in cold blood last year, is expected to appear in state court on Tuesday morning. FOX 5 NY’s Briella Tomassetti has the latest details.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Manhattan district attorney’s office contends that there are no double jeopardy issues because neither of Mangione\u2019s cases has gone to trial and because the state and federal prosecutions involve different legal theories.<\/p>\n

If Judge Gregory Carro permits the state case to go forward, Mangione\u2019s lawyers have said they want him to dismiss terrorism charges and bar prosecutors from using evidence collected during Mangione\u2019s arrest last December. Prosecutors want the judge to force Mangione\u2019s lawyers to state whether they\u2019ll pursue an insanity defense or introduce psychiatric evidence of any mental disease or defect he may have.<\/p>\n

Two high-profile cases are taking place this week: Tyler Robinson faces charges in the shooting death of Charlie Kirk, while Luigi Mangione is due in New York state court on Tuesday. Criminal defense attorney Arthur Aidala joined Good Day New York with expert analysis on the legal proceedings surrounding the cases.<\/p>\n

Carro could either rule on those requests on Tuesday, schedule additional hearings or issue written decisions at a later date.<\/p>\n

Flyers posted around the area also indicate that there will be a protest in support of the accused CEO murderer. It’s Mangione\u2019s first court appearance in the state case since February.\u00a0<\/p>\n
