The trial of former aides to Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty is likely to be adjourned Monday on a request by the lawyer for one accused that he has not had enough time to review documents. David Livingston and Laura Miller are charged with breach of trust, mischief and unlawful use of a computer during the investigation of the decision to cancel hydro plant projects on the eve of the 2010 general election. Livingston’s lawyer says he plans to seek an immediate adjournment so the defence can go over documents the prosecution handed over only recently. The case involves allegations of illicit email destruction in the office of former Liberal premier Dalton McGuinty. The emails were about the Liberals’ decision to cancel two gas plants just before the 2011 election, costing taxpayers about $1.1 billion.
