Abby Lee Miller’s Bankruptcy Fraud Case Is On Hold – Does That Mean Bad News For The Dance Moms Star?
Jan. 29 2016, Updated 2:23 p.m. ET
Abby Lee Miller has bought herself more time. The Dance Moms star’s bankruptcy fraud trial has been delayed for the third time since she was charged with the crimes that could put her in jail for up to five years.
In court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, her legal counsel’s January 27th request to extend the deadline to file their pretrial motions was accepted.
The documents claim that the FBI provided her attorneys with “two discs containing discovery material” during a December 3rd meeting. However, no material was given to her team. The material is currently at the FBI’s Pittsburg office. Her lawyers explained how they and the FBI have “not been able to coordinate a mutually available time” for her team to review it.
The 49-year-old has until March 1st to file her pretrial motions.
