      *The manslaughter case against former New Jersey Nets star Jayson Williams was scheduled to hit a courtroom again yesterday.       

       Attorneys for Williams were to argue in front of a three-judge panel that prosecutors must divulge all details about a racial slur used by an investigator in the case in reference to the former NBA star.       

       Williams, 39, faces a retrial for reckless manslaughter in the shooting death of a 55-year-old limousine driver.       

       The dispute over the slur postponed the retrial, which was to have begun in January. Williams has been free on bail since the shooting.
