BALTIMORE (AP) — A judge has granted a request by Baltimore’s top prosecutor to postpone her trial on federal criminal charges.
State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby was scheduled to go to trial next month.
She is charged with making false statements on financial documents to withdraw money from her retirement savings and purchase two Florida vacation homes.
U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby granted the request Tuesday and rescheduled the trial for Sept. 19.
Last week, Mosby’s attorneys said they needed more time to prepare.
Prosecutors said there was no reason to delay. Mosby has alleged that the prosecution wants to hurt her re-election chances.
