He is accused of possession of an indecent photo of a child on May 9 last year plus four similar charges. One of those charges was that he was in possession of 53 indecent photographs of children on the same date.
A Prosecutor said that on the basis of the papers before the court there is a case to answer. Montgomery’s barrister Mr Conor Lunny said that is conceded.
District Judge Michael Ranaghan said there is a prima facie case.
When asked if he wanted to say anything in relation to the charges Montgomery said: “No.” He also didn’t want to tender any written evidence.
Montgomery was returned to Craigavon Crown Court for trial on October 2 with a pre-arraignment on September 11.
