TULIA, Texas (AP) — A West Texas judge has set ground rules in a sex abuse case against a former Roman Catholic priest who served 11 years in Texas — despite a child molestation conviction in California.

The judge Wednesday told attorneys for both sides how proceedings will go in John Anthony Salazar’s case.

He’s pleaded not guilty to indecency with a child in connection with a 2001 Texas incident. He declined to comment.

The trial is scheduled for Aug. 27.
