A priest accused of historic sexual offences in Dublin has been sent forward for trial to the Circuit Court.
The 58-year-year old priest, with an address in London, is charged with indecently assaulting a named female on dates unknown between 1978 and 1979 at a religious institution in South Dublin.
He appeared before Judge Bridget Reilly at Tallaght District Court on Monday for service of his book of evidence.
A solicitor for the prosecution told the court that the book was ready to be served.
She said the Director of Public Prosecutions had consented for the man to be sent forward for trial to the present sitting of Dublin Circuit Court.
