The woman convicted of extorting University of Louisville basketball coach Rick Pitino is asking to delay her sentencing hearing.

Karen Sypher's attorney asked that the October 27 sentencing hearing be put off for at least 30 days. He says he needs the time to finish preparing for the sentencing.

A jury convicted Sypher in August of three counts of extortion, two counts of lying to the FBI and a count of retaliation against a witness.
