A legal brief filed this week with the Tennessee Court of Criminal Appeals on behalf of former Roman Catholic priest William Casey seeks reversal of his sex crime convictions in Tennessee, or a new trial.

Casey, 79, was convicted in July 2011 by a Sullivan County Criminal Court jury of first-degree criminal sexual conduct and two counts of aggravated rape in connection with sex abuse of then-altar boy Warren Tucker between 1978 and 1980.

At the time, Casey, a long-time resident of the Camp Creek community of Greene County, was serving as priest at St. Dominic Catholic Church in Kingsport.
