The youths had their first hearing adjourned last Friday so their lawyers could review evidence.
Tony Hannebery, one of the boy’s lawyers, said the next hearing would be a contest mention.
“Some of them may plead guilty or not guilty, the evidence is tested, and the judge determines how long a trial – if there is one – could take,” he said.
A DVD of the alleged assault, which occurred last June, was sold for $5 in western suburbs schools, and posted on the Internet.
Excerpts showing the boys throwing eggs at local taxi drivers, hoon driving, harassing a homeless man and carousing at teenage parties were also shown on TV.
