Scheduling challenges and other conflicts have continued to abound in the upcoming felony jury trial for former Danville teacher and San Ramon Valley cheerleading coach Nicholas Moseby, with the trial now being pushed out an additional month after it had previously been rescheduled for this week.
The new trial date – Sept. 10 – will be nearly two years after Moseby was first taken into custody on multiple charges of sexually abusing and harassing minors on Sept. 16, 2022, with the list of charges growing in the subsequent months as additional victims came forward. He has pleaded not guilty.
While the case against Moseby is an eye-catching one that has captured attention throughout the region, the reasons for the continued delays have been more mundane, related to scheduling conflicts between the judge and attorneys on both sides and additional behind-the-scenes work.
The latest delay was due to the court being unable to accommodate the previously scheduled court date on Monday (Aug. 12), according to a spokesperson from the Contra Costa County District Attorney’s office.
This marks the fourth date change for the trial since its initial date in November 2023, which was first rescheduled to March 18 of this year, then June 24, then Aug. 12 and now Sept. 10.
Moseby spent more than three months in jail following his arrest, but has been out on bail since Dec. 29, 2022.
