The highly anticipated racketeering trial of former Illinois House Speaker Mike Madigan has been delayed amid questions surrounding the affects of a pending Supreme Court ruling.

The trial, originally slated to begin in early April, will instead begin on Oct. 8, according to the ruling.

Madigan, accused of reaping benefits of private legal work that was illegally steered to his law firm, faces bribery and racketeering charges in connection with the ongoing case, as does Michael McClain, a former confidant of the speaker’s.

The Supreme Court case in question, James Snyder v. United States, involved allegations of corruption against the former mayor of Portage, Indiana. He was convicted in the case, but appealed the conviction amid questions of whether a bribery statute used in the case criminalizes “gratuities or rewards without a quid pro quo,” according to a summary of the case provided by the Chicago Sun-Times.
