The drunk driving trial of Utah County Commissioner David Gardner has been postponed at least 30 days while Gardner's attorney prepares a motion for a change of venue. The motion will ask that the trial be moved outside of Utah County because of Gardner's influence as a County Commissioner.

Gardner, who is a member of the LDS Church, is cited in a March 22nd incident in which his car ran off a rural road near Spanish Fork, Utah, punctured a gas tank and started a fire. Gardner claims that he was not drunk.
