Mueller Promises More Details on Manafort Case in 10 Days
Special Counsel Robert Mueller and Paul Manafort asked for a brief delay before updating a judge about Manafort’s cooperation in the Russia investigation, saying they will have more to report in 10 days.
Lawyers in the case were supposed to submit a status report Friday but asked U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson in Washington for an extension until Nov. 26. They didn’t explain why, saying in a brief filing on Thursday that they will then submit “a report that will be of greater assistance in the court’s management of this matter.”

Thanksgiving Surprise? Mueller’s Latest Manafort Maneuver Hints Something Big May Happen Soon
“At the hearing on September 14, 2018, the Court ordered the parties to submit a joint status report on November 16, 2018. The parties have been meeting since the hearing date,” the filing says.
Alright, so Manafort and Mueller have been meeting. That’s not really anything new, as Manafort’s cooperation was the key element of the plea deal he struck with the special counsel to avoid a second trial.
Then comes the next line: “The parties believe a brief extension of the status report date, until November 26, 2018, will allow them to provide the Court with a report that will be of greater assistance in the Court’s management of this matter.”
All Mueller needs is a week and a half to iron some things out that will be “of greater assistance” to the court. This is a very interesting development and legal experts are in agreement that something big is brewing.

eems like Mueller and Manafort’s lawyers expect something significant to happen in the next 2 weeks.”
