A court hearing in Lute Olson's divorce case has been postponed from Wednesday to next month. The University of Arizona basketball coach had been ordered to appear in Pima County Superior Court after his wife, Christine Olson, accused him of moving money from their joint account to his personal account a day after he filed for divorce. Olson took a leave of absence from UA for the 2007-08 season. A divorce trial date is set for Sept. 15 and 16, a spokesman for his estranged wife said.

The money he moved was money from endorsements delineated in a pre-nup as untouchable by her. She made the first move on the money and when he found out blocked it and made a move to prevent her from attempting again.
