Mueller requests Flynn's sentencing be delayed at least two more months
By Brett Samuels - 05/01/18 05:25 PM EDT
Special Counsel Robert Mueller on Tuesday requested that sentencing for former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn be delayed by at least two months.
Mueller’s team and attorneys for Flynn submitted that Flynn is not ready for sentencing “due to the status of the special counsel’s investigation,†according to a court filing in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C.
Flynn pleaded guilty in December to lying to the FBI as part of Mueller’s probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. As part of the plea deal, Flynn agreed to cooperate with Mueller’s ongoing investigation.
The parties are required to provide an update on Flynn’s status by June 29, according to the court filing.
