David Ragsdale, accused of fatally shooting his wife in Lehi on Sunday, before an initial court hearing on Jan. 14.
If prosecutors are not ready to file charges by then, Buhman said they will ask 4th District Judge Lynn Davis to postpone Ragsdale's first court appearance.
Ragsdale, 35, was arrested on suspicion of aggravated murder, a potential capital offense, for allegedly shooting to death his 30-year-old wife Kristy Ragsdale in the parking lot of a Lehi LDS church, in front of her mother and several witnesses. He is being held in the Utah County jail without bail.
Kristy Ragsdale was planning to file for divorce, her attorney has said.
Greg Skordas, David Ragsdale's lawyer, said Tuesday that he met with his client Sunday and Monday, and they will not seek a court hearing before next week. He declined further comment.
A funeral for Kristy Ragsdale is in the planning stages, but it is expected to be held Saturday at the Lehi stake center where she attended church, an LDS Church spokesman said.
