FORT COLLINS — A preliminary hearing for a former Fort Collins Catholic priest was postponed today until March 7.

The Rev. Timothy Evans, who appeared before Larimer County District Court Judge Jolene Blair, is charged with two counts of sexual abuse on a child by a person in a position of trust, one count of pattern of abuse, and one count of contributing to the delinquency of a minor. All are felonies.

Evans was removed from the ministry at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton parish in 2002. He was arrested in 2004 when the charges were filed.
