A Louisville man charged with killing his mother back in 2018 appeared in court Monday morning.
This is the third time Gavin Perkins has stood trial for the murder of 69-year-old Ruth Perkins. Perkins has repeatedly been found unfit to stand trial.
He was re-indicted in the murder case over the summer after it was revealed he could soon be released from a state mental health facility.
Now, it is up to the judge to rule if Perkins is competent to stand trial.
In court, he handed a letter over to the judge, expressing some sort of grievance.
Attorneys on both sides discussed a future competency hearing for Perkins involving a professional evaluation.
That hearing is set for January 30.
