Damien Bendall, aged 31, was due at Derby Crown Court last month but the hearing was pushed back to this morning due to a delay in the completion of a report needed for the case.
Bendall is charged with four murders altogether.
The bodies of Terri Harris, 35 and her two children, John Paul Bennett, 13 and Lacey Bennett, 11, were found in a house in Chandos Crescent, Killmarsh, Derbyshire, last September along with the body of Lacey’s friend, Connie Gent, 11.

Before that they were all primary school pupils in Woodhouse, where John Paul and Lacey used to live before moving to Killamarsh.
Connie still lived in Woodhouse.
