Elizabeth Holmes, the Theranos founder convicted of four counts of felony criminal fraud by a jury earlier this month, won’t have her sentencing hearing until Sept. 26, according to a ruling Wednesday by the judge in her case.

The decision by Judge Edward Davila followed a court filing Tuesday by Holmes’ legal team indicating that they had agreed with the prosecution to put off the hearing until Sept. 12. Sentencing in federal criminal trials usually takes place within a few months.
