LOS ANGELES, April 5 (Xinhua) -- The late king of pop Michael Jackson's personal physician Conrad Murray made his appearance Monday in a hearing for his alleged involuntary manslaughter charge, while the judge refrained from making a ruling and ordered him to return in more than two months' time.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor ordered Murray to return June 14 when a date is expected to be set for a preliminary hearing -- during which the judge will determine if there is enough evidence to require him to stand trial.

The judge is also expected to consider a request from the California Attorney General's Office to revoke the 57-year-old doctor's medical license, in a bid to effectively preventing him from practicing in California while the case is pending.
