Hart, who was on probation for a burglary conviction at the time of the shooting, was charged with murder in the mans death. He has said he fired in self-defense.Hart isnt entitled to immunity because as a convicted felon he was prohibited from carrying weapons, and it doesnt appear that he acted in self-defense, Hughes said in the order.Prosecutors say evidence shows Hart of Camp Hill and his cousin Tyrone Rowe were at a party in Auburn when they saw Mitchell. Rowe testified earlier this month that Mitchell was angry Rowe liked a photo of Mitchells girlfriend on Instagram.Hart said Rowe and Mitchell argued and that Mitchell opened fire. Hart said he returned fire using a handgun that another partygoer handed to him as he left the party.

Blevins said he expects to decide by Thursday whether to ask a higher court to review the decision.The shooting happened at the same apartment complex where former football players Ed Christian and Ladarious Phillips and a third man, DeMario Pitts, were shot to death during an argument at a late-night gathering in June 2012.
