The court case against a Sudbury woman accused in the murder of her estranged husband has been adjourned until April 14.
Melissa Sheridan’s lawyers made a brief appearance in court Wednesday morning, to seek an adjournment.
Sheridan is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her estranged husband, Brant Burke, whose body was discovered on Oct. 25 on a trail in the Point Grondine Reserve off Highway 637, the road that leads to the hamlet of Killarney.
She was granted bail in December 2020 under a set of strict conditions.
Also charged with first-degree murder is Kerry Burke, the brother of the victim.
Toronto-based lawyer Michael Lacy is representing Sheridan. He submitted what he called the “most restrictive bail order that can be imagined.”
