Explanation:
from both Garzanti and Codeluppi

If it were "rinviare una causa" I would agree that it could be a postponement or continuance, but not in the case you've given.

bring to court


Explanation:
I found the explanation in Russian at the site below, it translates as "bring/transfer a case from the Committee of Inquiry into Court", and "rinviare qd a guidizio" means "bring someone to court".

I also thought of "postpone" at first, as this is what rinviare usually means, but since I found the exact phrase translated in a different way...

agree  Sylvia Gilbertson: Yes, Petja, you're right. We are definitely NOT talking about a postponement here

  -> Well, I really don't think that's the case, since I see your answer is similar to mine and you have checked 2 dicts, I was surprised the postpone answer was picked, that's not the right translation...
