NETeller Hearing Pushed Back Yet Another Two Weeks

It's getting so routine at this point but the hearing to determine if two NETeller co-founders will be indicted has been postponed for yet another two weeks.

A hearing was scheduled for May 16 but is now slated for the first week in June according to MajorWager.com.  This would represent the fifth postponement of the hearing.

Gambling911.com first broke the story in mid January that Stephen Lawrence and philanthropist John Lefebvre, both former directors of the Isle of Man-based third party payment solution, were arrested; Lefebvre in Malibu, California, and Lawrence in the US Virgin Islands.  Both men were held on $5 million bonds and later released but are not permitted to travel outside the United States. 

The two were charged with racketeering and money laundering.

Since this time, NETeller representatives and the US Department of Justice have claimed that monies owed to US customers has been seized.
