Ryan Routh, the man charged with attempting to assassinate GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump at his Florida golf course last month in Palm Beach, Florida will stand trial starting on November 18, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon said on Tuesday.

Routh pleaded not guilty to five federal charges, including “attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate, possessing a firearm in furtherance of a crime of violence, assaulting a federal officer (a Secret Service Agent), felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, and possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number,” according to federal prosecutors.

Routh was spotted pointing a gun through the bushes outside of Trump’s golf course on Sept. 15.
