Luigi Mangione is getting a respite from the federal detention center he currently calls home … because he’s back in a courthouse … at least for a little bit.

Luigi will be back in court Monday for a pretrial hearing in his New York state case … where he’s accused of gunning down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

We haven’t seen Luigi since his last court appearance back in mid-September, when he got a couple terrorism charges dismissed in the state case.

Luigi’s defense is also fighting to keep some alleged evidence out of court … including his statements to law enforcement during his 2024 arrest at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, as well as a backpack cops found.

Luigi fans may want to soak this all in … the next time they see him will likely be Jan. 9, when he is due back in court in his federal death penalty case.
