A pre-trial hearing, called a felony hearing, was postponed today for Patrick Donahue, the 21-year-old Batavia man accused of rape in the first degree.
Donahue made bail, removing the legal requirement to have the felony hearing within a few days of his arrest.
The hearing is the first chance his attorney gets at challenging the evidence against him.
Donahue is accused of raping a 30-year-old woman at a residence on Walnut Street on Jan. 10.
