On Sept. 1, a DC Superior Court judge Judge Juliet McKenna scheduled a status hearing for a post-conviction sex abuse case.

A jury found Urbano Vazquez guilty of second-degree child sex abuse and misdemeanor sexual abuse of a child on Aug. 15, 2019. 

The hearing was scheduled after Vazquez declined to continue his case for trial.

In February, the parties set the case down for a non-jury trial, which has been pushed back several times over the past year. 

The defendant was sentenced to 15 years in prison. 

In all of the charges of which the defendant was found guilty, he was also found culpable of committing sex offenses against two or more victims. 

Judge Juliet McKenna scheduled the status hearing for Dec. 7.
