Attorneys for the defendants in the Kwame Kilpatrick federal corruption trial want a change of venue, citing fairness and safety issues.
The request was made on the record Tuesday in federal court in Detroit before U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmunds.
Edmunds said the legal teams could file a motion and that she would review it, but she felt it was too premature.
Kilpatrick, his father Bernard, ex-city water boss Victor Mercado and Kilpatrick pal Bobby Ferguson are accused of a sweeping corruption scheme. The Kilpatricks are accused of shaking down contractors who wanted business or favors from Detroit city hall.
All have pleaded not guilty.
