Pre-Trial Conference Set for Ludwig Kaiser in Florida Battery Case

A pre-trial conference for Ludwig Kaiser (Marcel Barthel) is scheduled in Orlando on July 16, with a potential trial period of August 10–28 noted in court documents. Kaiser has pleaded not guilty to a misdemeanor battery charge stemming from an April 24 altercation in his apartment complex, where the alleged victim says Kaiser attacked him after being asked to “please have some manners,” and police observed a scratch and redness to the victim’s head.

Court filings show Gunther (Walter Hahn), who posted Kaiser’s $1,000 bond, and legal counsel have been notified, and Florida did not object to Kaiser’s motion to travel, allowing domestic and international trips while the case proceeds. Kaiser is booked to wrestle in Mexico at AAA Noche de Los Grandes in a mask-vs-mask match against Chad Gable, and reports indicate there is no disciplinary action against him within WWE at this time.
