A gun possession case against Burress was adjourned Tuesday

Source (nfl.com) (WR - nyg) | 0 comments.

A gun possession case against Burress was adjourned Tuesday until June unless he reaches a plea agreement with prosecutors to resolve the matter sooner. Burress accidentally shot himself in the thigh with an unlicensed gun he'd stuffed into his waistband at a Manhattan nightclub last year.

Impacts: Asked whether Burress would play for the Giants this year, Burress' attorney Benjamin Brafman said, "It's not my decision. It's the Giants' decision and Plaxico's decision. It's not a legal decision, it's a sports decision. "I assume a lot will depend on how, when and if this case is resolved and June 15th is the next day we are back unless there is a reason to come back earlier."

We're going to have to wait a little longer to get more information

Source (CBSSports.com) (WR - nyg) | 0 comments.

News: We're going to have to wait a little longer to get more information on Plaxico Burress' future after a New York court adjourned his illegal handgun case until June 15. Burress, who accidentally shot himself in the thigh at a Manhattan nightclub in November, has been charged with criminal possession of a weapon in the second-degree, a felony that requires a minimum jail sentence of 3 1/2 years and a maximum of 15 if convicted. Statistics show that more than eight out of 10 people arrested in New York City in 2008 for the same charge Burress faces received a reduced charge, though some plea deals included jail time. Rumors have swirled about possible a plea deal that includes an undetermined amount of jail time. Prosecutors commonly offer reduced charges in gun possession cases, considering past criminal history, arrest circumstances and the reason for having the weapon. The 31-year-old wide receiver has no criminal record. The gun he was carrying had been licensed in Florida and only recently expired. It was not licensed in New York. [...]
