TORONTO – The case involving two top aides to former Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty has been put over for a month.

The decision cost taxpayers $1.1 billion.

Lawyers told Ontario court today that Miller had a new lawyer who is reviewing disclosure.

The case, being handled by federal prosecutors, was put over for another date-setting on March 23.
