"An arraignment, initial conference, and bail hearing in this matter is hereby scheduled to occur as a remote video/teleconference," due to the COVID-19 pandemic, on July 14 at 1 pm, wrote Federal Judge Alison Nathan in an order registered with the court on Tuesday.
At the hearing, prosecutors will argue for Maxwell to remain behind bars without bail.
Maxwell, 58, is the daughter of late newspaper baron Robert Maxwell.
Prosecutors say she is an "extreme" flight risk, pointing out that she has passports from the United States, Britain and France.
The attorneys also say they have identified 15 bank accounts associated with her in the last four years. The total balance of these accounts has ranged from hundreds of thousands of dollars to more than $20 million.
