Katsav lawyer motions court to extend deadline on repeat hearing

Former President Moshe Katsav's new lawyer, Yoram Sheftel, has motioned the Supreme Court to postpone by 10 days the deadline for submitting a request for a repeat hearing. The hearing is to deal with Katsav's conviction.

The court has already denied two such motions. Sheftel has until January 29 to submit the request. (Aviad Glickman)
