Sentencing is ahead this summer in a Lyon County drug distribution case that has moved to a no-contest plea.
Alexander Stewart had originally been charged with distributing up to 100 grams of psilocybin (sill-uh-SY-bin), possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia after an alleged incident in mid-December 2023. Steward pleaded no contest to one count of possessing psilocybin and another of possessing drug paraphernalia Friday. Remaining counts were dismissed.
Sentencing is July 31.
Meanwhile, a Lyon County drug distribution case is moving towards trial, perhaps as soon as mid-July.
Azim Williams was set for potential trial start dates of July 15, Aug. 12 or Aug. 26 as part of a pretrial hearing Friday. A status hearing will take place July 10, barring delays.
Williams has been charged with distributing up to 100 units of fentanyl, up to 100 grams of methamphetamine and up to 450 grams of marijuana as part of an alleged incident this past February. He also faces a count of possessing drug paraphernalia.
