DeLorean Fraud Trial Postponed Until April

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

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