The United States government has filed an appeal against a Trinidadian High Court ruling that Washington be excluded from being part of the judicial review claim brought by former FIFA vice president Jack Warner.
Mr. Warner is challenging his extradition to that country on fraud related charges.
Hearing of the procedural appeal was due to have started on Monday, but it was adjourned to July 18, at the request of attorneys.
The US government had sought to be a party in the hearing of the judicial review, claiming it had sufficient interest in the proceedings.
In his ruling last month, Justice James Aboud questioned the contribution Washington could have made to the proceedings.
Jack Warner is charged with 12 offences related to racketeering, corruption and money laundering allegedly committed in the United States and Trinidad and Tobago, dating as far back as 1990.
