Attorneys involved in the case against Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) requested that the trial be delayed until February 2027.
Cherfilus-McCormick, who faces over 15 charges of fraud after a House Ethics Committee hearing last month, was scheduled to stand trial in less than a week. The Florida representative allegedly stole over $15 million in Federal Emergency Management Agency funds, rerouting the money to her campaign fund.
