WASHINGTON — Michael K. Deaver’s perjury trial was postponed today until next Wednesday so the former presidential aide can undergo surgery to remove a kidney stone.
Deaver suffered his second kidney stone attack in nearly two weeks and was admitted Wednesday night to Georgetown University Hospital, defense lawyer Randall J.
