CNN
A lawyer for Joel Greenberg, the former Florida tax collector with close ties to Rep. Matt Gaetz, has asked a federal judge to delay his federal sentencing for the second time while he continues to cooperate with the federal government.
Greenberg is currently scheduled to be sentenced on November 18 after a judge granted a previous request to reschedule it from August 19. Now Greenburg's attorney, Fritz Scheller, is asking to push the sentencing back five months to March 2022.
In May, Greenberg formally pleaded guilty to six federal charges, admitting to a federal judge that he had knowingly solicited and paid a minor for sex.
