A Cle Elum man charged with more than a dozen illegal gun offenses was granted an additional week by the court to secure an attorney. The defendant, whose name has not been publicly disclosed, informed the court he has been unable to find legal representation following the charges. The court's decision to extend the deadline comes as part of standard legal procedures for defendants who cannot afford or locate counsel. The case is set for a follow-up hearing on September 1, 2026, where the court will determine if further action is necessary.
