The man accused of setting the blaze that later turned deadly in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood is now set for a second trial.

Jonathan Rinderknecht is set for trial on Nov. 2 — just one day before election day. He's still in jail after the federal Justice Department's case against him collapsed in legal errors in June.
