OET (OET-LV) But the Faʸlix he_put_off them, having_known more_exactly the things concerning the way, having_said:
Whenever Lusias the commander may_come_down, I_will_be_investigating the things concerning you_all,
OET (OET-RV) But Felix who was already familiar with followers of ‘The Path’, announced that the trial would be adjourned until Commander Lysias arrived when he would investigate further.

/may/_come_down
Felix says may come down because that was the customary way of speaking about traveling from Jerusalem, since that city is up on a mountain. Use a natural way in your language of referring to traveling to a lower elevation.
24:22 Perhaps Felix delayed his decision hoping that Paul would bribe him (24:26).
