RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - 1 of Michael Vick's co-defendants in a federal dogfighting case will appear in court in Richmond Monday for a plea agreement hearing.
Tony Taylor's hearing was added to US District Judge Henry Hudson's docket a day after he and the other three defendants pleaded not guilty before the same judge.
Vick and the others still are scheduled for trial November 26th.
Prosecutors claim the 34-year-old Taylor found the Surry County property purchased by Vick and used it as the site of "Bad Newz Kennels," a dogfighting enterprise. The Hampton man also allegedly helped purchase pit bulls and killed at least two dogs that fared poorly in test fights.
Taylor's lawyer did not immediately return a phone message, and federal prosecutors have declined to talk about the case.
