Lawyers for McDonnell argued earlier this week that her conviction on federal bribery charges should be overturned in light of the Supreme Court decision vacating her husband former Virginia governor Robert F. McDonnell's conviction. The couple was tried together in connection with their relationship with a nutritional supplement salesman, although they had different defense teams and their appeals have proceeded separately.
Attorneys on both sides now have until the end of the month to update the court on their negotiations. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Virginia must decide whether to file a brief arguing that a new trial is warranted.
