A BOOK naming an ex-priest whose identity remains gagged has been submitted to Armidale Local Court during the man’s hearing on child sexual abuse charges.
The non-publication order remains on naming the former priest, 59, who today faced 13 fresh charges.
The book was submitted to Magistrate Karen Stafford by defence solicitor Glen Kee.
He asked the magistrate to consider taking action against the author.
But Magistrate Stafford said she would only consider the matter, although continuing to suppress the identity of the defendant until at least September 4.
