Federal prosecutors have agreed to postpone the trial of Nadine Menendez after her lawyers cited serious health issues. The delay was granted to allow Menendez sufficient time to recover from a recently diagnosed medical condition.
Nadine Menendez, the wife of Senator Bob Menendez, requested the trial be postponed after being diagnosed with a serious medical condition that requires a surgical procedure in the next 4–6 weeks, followed by significant follow-up and recovery treatment. Her lawyers stated that she would not be physically or psychologically fit to participate in a six-week trial starting on May 6.
