Comer told Maxwell in a letter that he planned to delay the meeting following her attorneys' ask for the postponement.
The Oversight Committee wanted to question her about what she knows about the operations of late disgraced financial Jeffrey Epstein, with whom she was intimately associated.
"Your testimony is vital to the Committee’s efforts regarding Mr. Jeffrey Epstein, including the 2007 non-prosecution agreement and the circumstances surrounding Mr. Epstein’s death," said Comer, per Politico.
The postponement will be until after the Supreme Court rules on Maxwell's appeal. Maxwell's attorneys have argues that her conviction, in 2021, should not have happened because of Epstein's earlier plea deal.
Comer told Maxwell in a letter that he planned to delay the meeting following her attorneys' ask for the postponement. Maxwell's attorneys also asked for additional considerations for Maxwell, such as immunity, which Comer said would not be granted.
Maxwell's attorneys wanted to pre-screen questions that would have been asked by the Committee, which Comer said "no" to as well. She also sought a pardon. The Supreme Court starts its next term in October 2025.
Maxwell was moved on Friday to a minimum security prison in Texas. She had been housed in federal low-security prison in Tallahassee, Florida. She was moved about a week after she was interviewed by Trump DOJ attorney Todd Blanche.
"This Department of Justice does not shy away from uncomfortable truths, nor from the responsibility to pursue justice wherever the facts may lead," said Bondi in a statement ahead of Blanche's interview of Maxwell.
"The joint statement by the DOJ and FBI of July 6 remains as accurate today as it was when it was written. Namely, that in the recent thorough review of the files maintained by the FBI in the Epstein case, no evidence was uncovered that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties."
