  • Nick Reiner won’t appear in court Tuesday as he has not been medically cleared to be transferred from jail, according to his lawyer.
  • Reiner, 32, was arrested after his parents, Rob and Michele Reiner, were found dead in their Los Angeles home Sunday.
  • He was expected to make his first appearance in court as early as Tuesday but his lawyer, Alan Jackson, told reporters outside court that there won’t be a hearing in the case today.
  • Jackson said his client has not been medically cleared to be transferred from the jail to the courthouse, the New York Times reported.
  • LAPD detectives alleged that Reiner is “responsible” for his parents' deaths but formal charges against him have not yet been made public.
