The way I read it is that the investigation has been done, and the prosecutors are simply asking the court's permission to allow the FBI to testify and explain the finances during the trial. I don't think they're actually asking for permission to carry out an investigation. Not a legal expert, so might be wrong.

“The lack of available funds to pay for personal purchases was an explanation of why the county pCard was used,” Takata said."
