Thomas 'Slab' Murphy had denied nine tax evasion charges
Sentencing of the alleged former IRA "chief of staff", Thomas 'Slab' Murphy, has been delayed until 26 February.
The 66-year-old was convicted of nine charges at the Republic of Ireland's non-jury Special Criminal Court in December.
Murphy lives at Ballybinaby, Hackballscross, County Louth, on a farm that straddles the border with Northern Ireland.
He had denied all the charges.
The prosecution was brought after an investigation by the Irish Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB).
