The case of a Health Sciences North physician facing child pornography charges has been adjourned to July 10.
The defence counsel for Dr. Ian MacDonald asked for the case to be adjourned to receive further evidence disclosure.
MacDonald, 48, a nephrologist, was granted bail last month, and has an extensive list of conditions he must abide by.
He is charged with seven counts of accessing child pornography and two counts of possessing child pornography. He appeared in court and was released on $2,500 bail. His father, Ronald MacDonald, is acting as surety. MacDonald will live at his father's home in Belleville under a strict set of conditions.
HSN has suspended MacDonald's privileges until completion of legal proceedings.
MacDonald was arrested May 15 by Greater Sudbury Police Service after HSN staff contacted them over concerns about activity on a computer in the hospital, suspecting child pornography has been accessed on the device.
The Internet Child Exploitation Unit and Computer Forensic Unit executed search warrants and a forensic investigation was conducted on the computer seized from MacDonald's personal office in the nephrology department.
