Curley, Schultz ask to delay January perjury trial

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Retired Penn State vice president Gary Schultz and athletic director Tim Curley have asked a judge to delay their Jan. 7 perjury trial stemming from the Jerry Sandusky child abuse investigation.

Attorneys for the administrators said they're still reviewing thousands of documents containing millions of pages that may be relevant to the case -- and that they expect even more of such evidence to come in subject to subpoenas and the discovery process. That's a pretrial phase when the prosecution must turn over its evidence to the defense.

Schultz's attorney, Thomas Farrell, said a Penn State subpoena has produced nine batches of computerized documents, the last being 60 gigabytes. Farrell said that's the equivalent of 1.2 million pages.
