Zimmerman waives immunity hearing in Stand Your Ground case
George Zimmerman told Judge Debra Nelson he agrees with defense plans not to seek an immunity hearing under Stand Your Ground. He acknowledged giving up the right to a hearing before his second degree murder trial in June while prosecutors and defense discuss timing. The judge had allotted two weeks for a potential immunity hearing, but trial timing remains in focus as the defense favors a jury ruling on liability.
