The lawyers agreed in a letter to the court that the deadline to bring an indictment against Luigi Mangione can be extended from Jan. 18 to Feb. 17.
The case is unusual because at least one charge carries the possibility of the death penalty, but whether to pursue that penalty must be made by the Justice Department.
Authorities say Mangione fatally shot Brian Thompson on Dec. 4 as he was walking to an investor conference in midtown Manhattan. The killing shocked the business community.
Mangione has pleaded not guilty in a New York state court to multiple counts of murder, including murder as an act of terrorism.
