Senator Bob Menendez seeks to postpone his January 29 sentencing due to his wife's upcoming trial.

Former U.S. Senator Bob Menendez has asked a federal judge to postpone his January 29 sentencing on bribery charges, citing the emotional toll it would take on his family, especially his wife, Nadine Menendez, who is scheduled to face her own trial starting January 21. Menendez's lawyers argue that the current timeline could prejudice his wife's trial and recommended moving the sentencing to a date after her trial, which may extend into March. Menendez was convicted in July on 16 charges, including bribery and obstruction of justice.
