The court postponed the trial date to next year due to the “unusual and complex” nature of the $350,000 fraud case against Abidemi Rufai.

Granting the application for the postponement, in agreement with the parties, the judge said that the case “is so unusual and complex, due to the nature of the prosecution and the volume of discovery.”

“The court agrees that counsel cannot reasonably be expected to prepare for trial in the time allowed under the existing schedule, taking into account the exercise of due diligence,” the judge said in his ruling.
