Reggie Fowler, a former NFL team owner and alleged "shadow banker" who might face up to 30 years of imprisonment, asked the court of the Southern District of New York for a six-month adjournment.
Technically, it was Fowler’s lawyer Ed Sapone who requested an “unusually long adjournment,” justifying it with his “serious medical condition” as well as with the necessity to obtain information relevant to the case from financial institutions, entities and individuals located in Europe.
