The hearing is set for the morning of June 29.

Zimmerman returned to jail Sunday because a judge revoked his $150,000 bond after prosecutors claimed he and his wife, Shellie, deceived the court during an April hearing.

At the hearing, Shellie Zimmerman testified that the couple had limited funds for bail because she was a full-time student and her husband wasn't working. Prosecutors say Zimmerman actually had raised $135,000 in donations from a website he created.

The same judge is scheduled to preside at the next bond hearing.

Zimmerman is charged with second-degree murder for fatally shooting 17-year-old Martin during a confrontation in a Sanford, Fla., gated community where Zimmerman lived. He's pleaded not guilty, claiming self-defense.
