Plaxico Burress to have case delayed again
Gary Myers and Melissa Grace of the New York Daily News report There is no plea deal for the gunslinging Plaxico Burress.
The former New York Giants receiver will appear in court Monday on gun charges, but the case is likely to be delayed because his lawyer has been unable to make a deal with prosecutors.
"There is no agreement at all," defense lawyer Benjamin Brafman told the Daily News.
The wide receiver hopes to get the case put off until September, which means he could play next season, Brafman said.
"We'll be in and out of court in five minutes," Brafman said. "There will be an adjournment."
The case was first postponed April 1 so the two sides could continue plea bargaining over the Nov. 29 fiasco in which the troubled star put a bullet through his thigh while partying at the Latin Quarter club.
Prosecutors had no comment.
Pro football officials are not sure Burress will play in 2009.
