KIEV, Nov. 23 (Xinhua) -- A Ukrainian court in the eastern city of Kharkiv adjourned 1 the tax evasion 2 and embezzlement 3 trial of former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko for the 11th time Friday after she refused to attend court due to poor health.
Judge Kostyantin Sadovsky adjourned the trial until Dec. 18.

In the current case, she faces charges of embezzling 5 an estimated 405 million U.S. dollars and evading 6 tax worth more than 87,000 U.S. dollars in the 1990s.
