Sometimes its just games D and P play with each other in the pre-trial phase. Sometimes there are legitimate reasons, sometimes not.
Maybe P is still recovering and analyzing new data/video, etc. or analyzing a different way and they're not finished yet. Maybe they've decided to add a new expert or two to analyze evidence and aren't ready. In this case they may be dragging their feet to make D give them the alibi evidence, while D is withholding the alibi evidence because they want to see what else the P has.
When the deadlines come, when it gets down to the trial, both sides will have met their obligations and will have enough time to analyze the discovery.
