If you advance the court date and the court imposes a year in the county detention center, you will not be able to report for basic training, and that might cause you a lot of problems. Make an appointment to discuss this with your lawyer, and bring your orders with you. A better strategy might be to postpone the court case. You should also confirm whether you have to report this to your commanding officer too. Your haste might take you from the frying pan into the fire.
