The prosecution case against two men accused of attempted murder has been described by the presiding judge as "shambolic" less than two weeks out from the start of the trial.
During a pre-trial discussion at the Lismore District Court on Friday, the two defence teams raised concerns about the case against Aydin Christopher Brown, 31, and Mark Gary Brown, 30.
The pair are facing a joint trial on February 8 for the attempted murder of Benn Peterson in July 2017.
It is alleged Mr Peterson was bashed and set on fire on Kyogle Rd, Kunghur, near Uki, by the two men.
