'NatWest Three' lawyers in bid to delay trial

A US court will today consider postponing the trial of the NatWest Three bankers who were extradited from Britain to face fraud charges.

David Bermingham (aged 43), Gary Mulgrew (aged 44), and Giles Darby (aged 43), all had American lawyers when they arrived in Houston, Texas, after they were extradited from Britain on July 13 to face the £11m (€16.1m) Enron-related case.
