Sheen hearing delayed over Mueller illness

Charlie Sheen and wife Brooke Mueller's attorneys have requested that Sheen's domestic violence hearing be moved to February 8 due to Mueller's hospital stay.

The actor was arrested in December after Mueller accused him of threatening her with a knife.

According to TMZ, doctors believe that Mueller has pneumonia and she is still in intensive care. An insider said that she will be in hospital for at least three days.

"She is very, very sick," the source added.

The district attorney has reportedly agreed to allow Sheen to visit his partner in hospital. A judge-signed court order on the issue is pending.

It was reported earlier that Mueller planned to go against doctors' orders and attend the hearing.
