A Freelton man accused of running a $14-million US Ponzi scheme has had his contempt of court hearing in Los Angeles postponed until July.
The United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission is asking a California judge to find Gordon Driver in contempt for violating a 2009 court order by refusing to provide answers to a number of questions related to his finances.
At a court appearance last week, the judge rescheduled the hearing for July 9. The judge also warned Driver during his brief appearance that he is facing possible jail time if he is found guilty of contempt.

Nothing like closing the barn door after the horses have got out.
The people who invested in this ridiculous scheme were either not very bright or completely blinded by greed. The promised returns were way off the scales.
