Two high-profile local court cases were back on the docket in recent days.

Former Gilbert Plains Municipality CAO Amber Fisher appeared in Dauphin Provincial Court on Monday, where she had her case adjourned until May 13th.

She is accused of defrauding the municipality of over 500 thousand dollars while she was employed by them and then allegedly claiming a cyberattack as a means of trying to cover it up.

And Marc Dorais was also back in court in relation to a fire set to an Ethelbert home last June while a female and her children were inside the house.

The 54-year-old from Ethelbert remains in custody until his next appearance on April 11th.
