Lawyers for celebrity crocodile wrangler Matt Wright have returned to court seeking more information about the charges he is facing over a helicopter crash that killed his friend Chris "Willow" Wilson, including a toxicology report of the chopper pilot.
Mr Wright, who is the star of the Netflix reality show Wild Croc Territory, is facing a series of charges in relation to the crash in Arnhem Land in February 2022, including attempting to pervert the course of justice, destruction of evidence, fabricating evidence and two counts of unlawful entry.
He was not on board the helicopter at the time of the crash and has strenuously denied any wrongdoing.
In a hearing in the Darwin Local Court on Wednesday, which Mr Wright was not required to attend, his lawyer Giles O'Brien-Hartcher asked the judge to make an order for particulars of the case.
"Those particulars relate to charges, the admissibility of the ATSB and CASA material, and the relevance of the toxicology report of the pilot who was flying at the time, and the relevance of the fuel in the helicopter," he said.
Mr O'Brien-Hartcher also sought a date for the disclosure of the brief of evidence and a date for a contested committal hearing.
Crown prosecutor Daniel Payne told the court the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) was waiting on more evidence that was seized under warrant, but the amount of material meant it was still being processed so could not yet be released to the prosecution and defence.
"The Crown is seeking an extended period for that to occur, that will allow for the material to be exposed and that will allow the parties to consider the large quantity of material and seek instructions prior to committal," he said.
Mr Payne also said a committal hearing for Mr Wright would likely take two days due to the number of arguments that would need to be made.
He flagged June 19 as a possible date.
Mr Wright's matter was adjourned and is due to return for a preliminary examination mention at the end of next month.
Earlier this year, a judge denied an attempt to have Mr Wright wear an electronic monitoring device as part of his bail conditions.
