LYLE and Erik Menendez are scheduled to make their first court appearance in nearly 30 years as their fight for freedom begins.
The notorious brothers, who have been jailed since the 1989 double murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty, are due to appear in court virtually on Monday for a status hearing regarding their potential resentencing.
Lyle, 56, and Erik, 53, bid for freedom began when Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón, who was unseated on Election Day, filed paperwork on October 25, asking a judge to reconsider resentencing the brothers, citing new evidence.
Gascón, whose last day in office is December 2, asked a court to remove the life without the possibility of parole penalty for the brothers.
Instead, the district attorney recommended a sentence of 50 years to life with the possibility of parole.
