DETROIT (WXYZ) - A preliminary hearing for Joe Gentz that was scheduled for Monday has been postponed so that attorneys can have more time to prepare for it.

Information on a new date for the hearing has not yet been released. 

Gentz is charged with murdering Jane Bashara in January. He has reportedly told police he murdered her on behalf of her husband.

Bob Bashara is also facing charges, after being arrested for allegedly trying to have Gentz killed.

Gentz's attorney has said they are trying to work out a plea deal where Gentz would testify about Bob Bashara's roll in his wife's death.
