ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - A man accused of taking off his clothes on US Airways flight to Los Angeles -- forcing it to be diverted to Albuquerque -- was in court Thursday morning.

The hearing for 50-year-old Keith Wright was continued until Monday at the request of his attorney, assistant federal public defender Roger Finzel.

According to a criminal complaint, Wright told the FBI he suffers from a bipolar disorder and had not taken his prescribed medication that morning.

Finzel requested that Wright have access to his medication while in custody in a medical unit.

He says Wright will be fine with his medication.

Wright, of New York, was taken into custody by airport authorities after he disrobed while sitting in his seat in the back of Flight 705 Tuesday evening from Charlotte to Los Angeles.
