The prosecution has requested that Høiby's detention be extended beyond September 7. The 29-year-old does not agree with their assessment that he is at risk of committing another crime, but accepts continued detention.
It depends on the king's funeral and the surrounding circumstances, defence attorney Petar Sekulic tells NTB.
The late King Harald will be buried on September 9, and Marius Borg Høiby has been granted permission to attend.
Queen Mette-Marit's son was sentenced in June to four years in prison for two rapes and several other violent offences. He has appealed, but is being held in ankle shackles at his mother and stepfather King Haakon's residence, Skaugum.
