A defense lawyer filed a motion to continue the first appearance for Angel Maisonet-Laboy until this Friday.
Maisonet-Laboy is being held in the Buchanan County Jail on one count of assault in the second degree. A judge earlier set bail at $50,000 cash.
The defendant is accused in connection with a fight last weekend outside a downtown nightclub. St Joseph police say Maisonet-Laboy went to his car and retrieved a hand gun. He is accused of firing two shots, one of which hit Kraig Buckner in the upper leg.
Associate Judge Rebecca Spencer re-scheduled the first appearance for Friday, June 17, at 8:15 a.m.
