Yale residents must wait until the new year to learn how the case against a former Chamber of Commerce officer plays out. Kellie Lauwers, wife of State Senator Dan Lauwers, was due in court Monday for a plea hearing, but it’s been pushed to January 19th. If no deal is reached, her jury trial, once set for next week, now begins January 26th. Prosecutors allege Lauwers, who served with the Yale chamber for five years, wrote checks to herself and forged other members’ signatures, taking about 30-thousand dollars.
