Former Green MP Golriz Ghahraman has been charged with stealing close to $10,000 worth of items from two different stores.
She was due to appear in Auckland District Court on Thursday facing three charges but the appearance has now been delayed.
Court documents released to media show the value of the goods Ghahraman allegedly stole.
She is accused of stealing $691 worth of clothing from Wellington's CRE8IVEWORX on October 22.
She is also charged with the theft of $2,060 worth of goods from Scotties Boutique in Ponsonby on December 21 and another $7,223 worth of goods two days later.
She is accused of stealing $9974 worth of items in total.
Such charges carry a maximum penalty of seven years in prison if convicted.
Ghahraman resigned from her role as an MP on January 16 after the allegations were levelled against her.
She cited mental health issues as a contributing stressor that led to acting "completely out of character".
The former MP is set to appear in court on February 28.
