Senior principal magistrate Eunice Nyutu had directed the parties to appear before trial magistrate Zipporah Gichana who will fix a hearing date.
Gichana took over the case after Magistrate Peter Ooko was transferred to another station.
In the case, 15 prosecution witnesses have so far testified with another 20 witnesses yet to give their testimonies.
Ongoro was charged alongside her husband Ferdinand Masha Kenga and eight others with embezzlement of CDF funds when she served as Kasarani MP between 2008 and 2013.
They allegedly committed the offence in Nairobi between May 2008 and December 31, 2012.
The funds were meant for the construction of Kasarani Girls High School.
The other suspects are James Dola, Silvan Onyango, Pamela Achola, William Ogutu of Nyangina Enterprises, Maurice Odhiambo of Komala Constructions, Jecinta Opondi and Accurate Construction and Engineering Works Limited.
