IMPERIAL COUNTY, Calif. (KYMA) - The man accused of killing his girlfriend near Senator Wash in Imperial County was back in court Tuesday for his preliminary setting.

56-year-old James Hill, who was extradited to Imperial County last month, is charged in the murder of 34-year-old September Lee Weisinger.

During Tuesday's court appearance, Hill got a new attorney from San Diego after his previous attorney no longer represented him due to a conflict of interest in another case.

KYMA tried to speak with the new attorney, but he declined to comment. In addition, Weisinger's mother was in attendance.

Hill will be back in court on December 18 for another preliminary setting.
