TL;DR Summary

Prosecutors have requested a delay in the corruption trial of Sen. Bob Menendez and his co-defendants, including his wife's trial, due to her need for medical treatment. The trial, originally set for May 6, may be postponed until July, with concerns raised about trying Nadine Menendez separately from her husband and co-defendants. The delay could impact Menendez's potential reelection bid as an independent, as the filing deadline for independent runs is in June. Stein is set to hear motions on Thursday, including a request by Nadine Menendez's attorneys to withdraw from the case, while Menendez faces accusations of accepting bribes in exchange for using his position to help foreign governments.
