A former Vernon Judo Club coach facing three child pornography charges will have to wait a while longer for arraignment.

Defence lawyer Nicholas Jacob appeared as counsel and agent for Bryan Jeffrey McLachlan, born 1970, asked Justice of the Peace Dalene Krenz for an adjournment to allow time to deal with disclosure.

“I still need time to read it,” Jacob told the court.

Krenz granted an adjournment of the arraignment hearing to Dec. 6.
