The sentencing date for Carol Neulander's killers has been delayed to Jan. 30.
Frank Hartman, the attorney for confessed hit man Leonard Jenoff, on Monday said he requested the change, from Jan. 23, for medical reasons.
Superior Court Judge Linda G. Baxter agreed to postpone sentencing for both Jenoff and his accomplice, Paul Michael Daniels. Both men said the killing was ordered by the victim's husband, Rabbi Fred J. Neulander of Cherry Hill.
The rabbi, convicted of capital murder in November, is to be sentenced Jan. 16.
Carol Neulander, a 52-year-old mother of three, was fatally beaten in her Highgate Lane home Nov. 1, 1994.
Jenoff, a former private investigator from Collingswood, and Daniels, a former Pennsauken resident with mental problems, pleaded guilty to aggravated manslaughter in connection with the attack.
Jenoff faces a maximum sentence of 30 years, with a 15- year bar on parole. Daniels, who also admitted to burglary, faces up to 50 years in prison, with a 25-year bar on parole.
Their attorneys are expected to seek substantially lighter sentences, saying the hit men's testimony helped convict the rabbi. Jenoff came forward to confess in May 2000, then tricked Daniels into admitting his role in a taped conversation.
The rabbi, 61, faces life in prison without parole for at least 30 years.
