United States Senior Judge Malcolm J. Howard signed an order today moving the Operation Rockfish trial of Antonio Tillmon to May 15.
It had originally been scheduled to begin next Monday.
Documents filed in the federal court record do not explain what prompted the continuation.
It is expected the trial will take five days and will begin at 10 a.m. at the federal courthouse in Greenville.
Tillmon is the only one of the 15 charged in the police corruption case to ask for a jury trial.
