FSU RB Dalvin Cook has motion hearing set for Wednesday

Florida State sophomore running back Dalvin Cook has a motion hearing for his misdemeanor battery case set for Wednesday at 10:30 a.m.

Cook’s legal counsel filed a demand for a speedy trial in Leon County last Thursday.

His attorney, Ricky Patel, told TomahawkNation.com Monday that a new witness has come forward to refute claims made by another witness and details of the victim’s 911 call after the incident occurred.

Cook was charged with misdemeanor battery after allegedly hitting a woman outside a Tallahassee bar on June 23. He turned himself into Leon County Jail on July 10, and was indefinitely suspended from the football team.

Cook has a pre-trial case management hearing set for Sept. 2. FSU’s 2015 season opener against Texas State is Sept. 5.
