Kelly’s sexual abuse trial in New York was et to July 7 but has been postponed to Sept.
27.
According to Reuters, a judge said the initial date wasn’t possible with COVID-19.
U.S. District Judge Ann Donnelly conducted the hearing by telephone to announce the new date.
Kelly filed a motion to be released on bail after several coronavirus cases were confirmed in his Chicago jail.
Donnelly said the judge overseeing a separate federal case on the singer would have to sign off on any release.
