The federal grand jury looking into the leak of a CIA operative's identity has adjourned for the day without announcing any indictments.

A Justice Department official says no announcement will be made Wednesday.

The panel met for three hours with Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald, who's finishing up a two-year criminal probe. An indictment could accuse one or more administration aides of breaking a law barring the intentional unmasking of an undercover CIA officer.

The prosecutor also has examined other possible crimes: mishandling classified information, perjury and obstruction of justice. The grand jury's term expires Friday, though it could be secretly extended by a federal judge, at Fitzgerald's request.
