Lawyers for the former Wellesley College cardinal accused of sexual abuse are expected to appear in court Monday.
Former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick’s attorneys filed a motion last month to withdraw the charges against the 92 year old.
McCarrick’s attorneys argue he has dementia and can’t stand trial.
The state said it would get a second opinion.
The former cardinal pleaded not guilty in 2021. He is accused of sexually abusing a boy at Wellesley College in June 1974.
