Beckley was charged along with several other men in connection to the so-called “Black Friday” case whereby defendants are accused of funneling millions of dollars online poker funds through a St. George, Utah bank in violation of US law.  

Beckley was originally slated to spend between 12 and 18 months in prison.  District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan is seeking a longer sentence.

From PokerFuse.com:

In the latest filing, Harris requested to a two-week delay, which would push the sentencing date for Beckley to July 23rd, but noted that previously scheduled vacations for both a law firm partner and for chief DOJ prosecutor Arlo Devlin-Brown occupied large chunks of the mid-summer calendar, and that a sentencing date in September was also acceptable.

According to the filing, Devlin-Brown’s office had “no objection” to the delay request.
