NEWPORT NEWS, Va. - Imprisoned quarterback Michael Vick wants more time for paperwork in his bankruptcy proceeding.
The suspended NFL star, appearing by teleconference in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Newport News on Thursday, said he needs more time to file lists of creditors.
The 28-year-old also asked to appoint adviser David Talbot as the manager responsible for handling Vick’s affairs while the former Atlanta Falcon serves his time in prison.
Court records show that Talbot has received payment so far in the form of a Mercedes-Benz given to him by Vick six weeks ago.
A ruling on Vick’s motions is expected July 28.
Vick is serving a 23-month prison sentence at the U.S. Penitentiary in Leavenworth, Kansas, after pleading guilty last year to bankrolling a dogfighting ring.
