Michael Flynn's lawyer says she needs a three-month delay before sentencing to work her way through three hard drives delivered from client's former lawyers
The latest postponement is the result of a legal switch Trump's former national security adviser made recently, firing his group of attorneys in favor of Sidney Powell, an outspoken critic of special counsel Robert Mueller.At a hearing Monday, Powell said she needs at least another 90 days to get up to speed on the case before Flynn receives his punishment for pleading guilty to lying to the FBI about his communications with a top Russian official.
“And there’s still more to come,” she said, during a separate Monday morning hearing at which Sullivan considered a Washington Post request to remove several redactions made in court filings tied to the Flynn case.Sign Up At the gathering, Powell said she and Flynn's other attorneys are working on getting a security clearance to review classified documents as part of Flynn's case.
