Ousted Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro's next US court appearance, initially scheduled for 17 March in New York, has been postponed to 26 March, court filings have showed.
Prosecutors blamed "scheduling and logistical issues," without giving further details in the request which was agreed to by the defense and the judge.
Mr Maduro's lawyer did not respond to a request for comment.
Appearing in court for the first time on 5 January, two days after he was seized during a US military operation in Venezuela, Mr Maduro, 63, pleaded not guilty to drug trafficking charges and declared that he was a "prisoner of war".
Appearing alongside him was his wife Cilia Flores, 69, who also pleaded not guilty and is expected to return to court with her husband on 26 March.
Mr Maduro ruled Venezuela with an iron fist between March 2013 and January 2026.
The country is now led by Delcy Rodrigues, who had been his vice president since 2018 but is now working closely with Washington.
