Court postpones Gerard Depardieu sexual assault trial as actor is ‘too ill’ to attend
The criminal court in Paris ordered an expert to assess the 75-year-old French actor’s health issues. Depardieu‘s lawyer, Jeremie Assous, requested the postponement, saying that the actor has heart trouble and diabetes-related issues. Mr Assous said doctors decided the actor was not well enough to appear, though he was eager to appear in court.
