Lawyers for the man accused of murdering Sydney man Morgan Huxley are waiting on a crime scene assessment, a court has heard.
The case against Daniel Jack Kelsall, 20, was mentioned briefly in Central Local Court on Tuesday, where he was not required to appear.
He is accused of fatally stabbing Mr Huxley, who was discovered with critical injuries in his Neutral Bay apartment in the early hours of September 8 last year.
Kelsall's lawyer told the court they had received CCTV footage from that night, but were awaiting a crime scene assessment and a forensic examination report on some electronic equipment.
Kelsall has also been charged with larceny, but police say there were no signs of a break-in at Mr Huxley's unit.

Court papers previously tendered to court said the two men, who police believe didn't know each other, lived minutes apart in the lower north shore suburb.
Security footage previously played in court captured the last hours of Mr Huxley's life.
He was recorded walking into a pub near his house barefoot at 1.01am after spending the afternoon at a friend's engagement party.
He had a beer by himself and left the pub half an hour later.
About 3am, his flatmate discovered him in his bedroom with multiple stab wounds.
He was taken to Royal North Shore Hospital where he died a short time later.
Kelsall's case will return to court on March 11.
