Conrad to be re-sentenced

THE re-sentencing of former media mogul Conrad Black on two remaining fraud convictions remains on track for next month.

Black appeared yesterday for a 10-minute hearing in federal court in Chicago.

An appeals court reversed two of the former Daily Telegraph owner’s convictions last year, citing a US Supreme Court ruling curtailing the “honest services” laws used to convict him of defrauding investors in Hollinger International Inc.
