Artie Lange's sentencing date for possession of heroin charges has been postponed yet again, RadarOnline.com can exclusively report.
The 50-year-old comedian was expected back in court on Friday, March 16. But Lange's lawyer, Frank Arleo, told RadarOnline.com his famous client is still in rehab getting help.
"He continues treatment, but he is doing ok," Arleo assured RadarOnline.com.
According to the Essex County Court clerk in New Jersey, "the matter has been adjourned to March 23 at his attorney's request, and the judge has granted the request."
Howard Stern's former sidekick was originally scheduled to appear in court on February 23, but as RadarOnline.com previously reported, his health issues got in the way.

"Also, he was never interviewed by the Probation Department, which prepares a sentencing report for the judge," Arleo added.
Lange pled guilty to possession of heroin charges on December 15.
