Actor Alec Baldwin has been granted permission to skip a preliminary hearing next month in the on-set shooting death of Halyna Hutchins.
A waiver of appearance was filed by Baldwin and his legal team over the weekend, and approved by Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer on Monday.
“I understand that I am charged with the following offense or offenses under the law of the State of New Mexico: Involuntary Manslaughter … in two alternatives,” the filing obtained by Fox News Digital reads.
