MUSICAL LAWYERS: Dr. Thomas A. Gionis, accused of ordering the 1988 assault on his former wife, Aissa Wayne, and her beau, will be in court Monday with a new attorney, this one as high-profile as the first. . . . After his arrest, the surgeon hired F. Lee Bailey but decided he needed local counsel. Gionis stuck with Santa Ana attorney John D. Barnett after his first trial ended in a hung jury, but Barnett’s now busy with the Rodney King beating case. His new attorney? Bruce Cutler, who won for New York mobster John Gotti, earning a spot on “60 Minutes.”
