Lawyers for the Quebec government asked a court on Monday for more time to unearth details about six threats allegedly made against former Parti Québécois leader Pauline Marois on the day of the 2012 Quebec provincial election.

A civil trial has heard that in the hours before the election night shooting that left one dead and one injured, six threats were made against the PQ leader. Information about the threats was contained in a provincial police document that had been shielded from public view until recently.
