Gold Bar Bob's Wife Requests Trial Delay For Upcoming Surgery

Nadine Menendez's attorneys said in a letter to the judge in the case that she is suffering from a "serious medical condition that will require a surgical procedure in the next four to six weeks as well as possibly significant follow-up and recovery treatment." 

In a court filing, the government said it doesn't object to the request and suggested the trial take place in July or August instead. 

The judge in the federal case in New York has yet to approve any delay. The government and Nadine Menendez's attorneys requested a status hearing in about eight weeks, in June, to reevaluate the timing of the trial, which was originally to begin in early May.
