Please accept my apology in advance for my ignorance, but can anyone advise the status of the indictment that led to Tom Delay’s removal from office?

The last I heard, and that was long ago, was that although an indictment was obtained, the PROSECUTION was seeking additional time to prepare for trial ?!?!?

Clearly the objective was Delay’s removal from office ASAP. That objective was met but I wonder if he was ever brought to trial and if so, what resulted?

DeLay..... As far as I know the two indictments alleging money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering still stand. The conspiracy to violate election law charge was thrown out by the courts and upheld all the way to the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. Earle upon leaving office said he’d help the incoming DA pro bono in resolving the two counts. So at this time I guess he’s still under indictment but no trial date has been set that I find or have heard of in the Texas media.
