No DeLorean Trial Until ’86

Former auto executive John Z. DeLorean’s trial on charges that he defrauded investors in his defunct sports car company has been postponed until next April at the earliest, a judge said today.

Judge Julian Cook, who will preside at the trial, said in an order that the issues involved in the indictment are so complex that requiring the trial to begin Nov. 18 as originally scheduled could result in a “miscarriage of justice.”
