KTUU reports the judge will decide next month on a new trial date.

This will be the second trial for Linehan. Her first conviction in 2007 was overturned in February by an appeals court.

Linehan once worked as a stripper in Anchorage. She is accused of conspiring with a man to kill her former fiance in 1996 for his life insurance.
