Montreal -- A Montreal teenager accused of crippling at least one
major Internet site appeared in court yesterday for a trial date to be
set.

The 15-year-old high-school student, who cannot be identified under
the Young Offenders Act, is scheduled to return to court Aug. 3.

Lawyers said they need more time to sift through the mounds of data
that investigators have pulled together since the teenager, who goes
by the Internet handle Mafiaboy, was arrested in April and charged in
an attack on the CNN.com Web site.

The boy is charged with mischief in relation to interfering with data
and is free on bail.
