Former lobbyist Don Beason's court date was postponed.

Beason appeared in a Wake County courtroom this morning to sign some legal paperwork. Neither he nor his attorney had any comment on the misdemeanor charge of waving a gun at another motorist during an alleged road rage incident.

His new court date was set for Oct. 30 at 9 a.m.

Beason dressed casually in a blue polo shirt and slacks and read The New York Times while waiting for his turn before Judge James Fullwood.

He was represented by former Rep. Bob Hensley.
