I, too, think that it means the trial date was moved. There isn't any further information available, so we're having to assume!
For anyone following, Galvan was released awaiting trial on September 9, 2019. Case #: D-1-DC-18-900085 Free access to Travis county dockets: Online Case Information The new trial date is not available in the online docket, and it doesn't appear trial commenced 10/28/2019 as media reported. News coverage: Suspect in 1979 murder case released from jail due to DNA snag Austin murder suspect released, new trial date set
I believe the articles you posted are old as his new trial date is now 3/20/20. And since I can't access the link you gave for the county dockets - does it have the "next court date" on there? TIA! and txngal to WS & this thread!

Glad she was able to help, and yea I linked the website because hearing/trial date wasn't updated. Thank you also for the warm welcome! Still figuring out alerts and notifications.
Hey @txngal - I have lost my "go to" person SeesSeas on this case - so was wondering if you might be able to look up & see when his next court date might be? Happy New Year! TIA!
Hi Niner!! Sorry for my delay, I've been really busy at work! It looks like he's set for a hearing OR trial on 3/30/2020. He was also denied his motion for speedy trial...that's what happens when you murder someone and lie for years about it!!
Thanks a bunch @txngal ! Surprised there are no court hearings before his trial date. I do have 3/30/20 as his trial date, by the way! Thanks again!
