A federal judge on Tuesday delayed former U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert's first court appearance until June 9 following his indictment in Chicago. The Illinois Republican was scheduled to be arraigned Thursday, but the hearing has now been pushed back. The change was made without explanation in a one-sentence court filing by U.S. District Judge Thomas M. Durkin's clerk. (AP Photo/Seth Perlman, File)
