Custody trial for Representative Max Miller delayed by five months

The custody trial between United States Representative Max Miller, a Republican from Ohio, and his former wife, Emily Moreno, has been postponed by five months. The New York Post reported that the trial was originally scheduled to begin on November 5. The postponement followed objections from attorneys representing Max Miller over a psychological evaluation of Emily Moreno. [1]

According to the New York Post, attorneys for Max Miller raised objections after an expert evaluated that Emily Moreno suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder caused by abuse. Earlier this year, both parties had agreed that an expert would conduct a psychological evaluation for the case. [1]

The delay occurs shortly after the election where Max Miller lost his re-election bid to Democrat Brian Poindexter on November 3, the New York Post reported. [1]
