Last week, the Public Prosecution Service (PPS) announced it was reactivating the case.
Prosecutors had decided to drop the case against the former paratrooper, however the High Court in Belfast overruled that decision in March.
The case was adjourned October 7 following a short court hearing.
At Belfast Magistrates’ Cours in on Wednesday, a prosecution barrister confirmed to District Judge Peter Magill that “we are now in a position to recommence”.
The judge suggested dates in late November and December for evidence to be heard in relation to whether the case should proceed to a full trial in the Crown Court.
Thirteen people were shot dead on Bloody Sunday and at least 15 others injured when members of the British Army’s Parachute Regiment opened fire on civil rights demonstrators in the Bogside.
In July last year, prosecutors announced they were dropping the case, following the collapse of the trial of two other army veterans who were accused over another killing during the conflict in Northern Ireland.
The Bloody Sunday families said at the time the decision was a “damning indictment of the British justice system”, adding they would challenge it.
Bereaved relatives then brought a successful legal challenge against the decision to discontinue the Bloody Sunday prosecution.
The court then also rejected the PPS’s bid to have its appeal referred to the UK Supreme Court.
Prosecutors subsequently reviewed their position and then announced it had decided to resume the prosecution last week.At today’s hearing, District Judge Magill said he wanted the case to proceed “expeditiously” but he was “handicapped by court availability”.
A date was set for a further hearing next Friday in Belfast, by which time the prosecution said it would have liaised with court authorities about the availability of the courthouse in Derry for the next stage of the case.
