Accused child molester Dennis Ferguson's trial has been listed to proceed in the Brisbane District Court in March next year.
60-year-old Ferguson has been charged with one count of indecent treatment of a child, over the alleged sexual assault of a five-year-old girl.
Before the trial proceeds on March 2, Ferguson's lawyers will take the matter to the High Court where they will seek special leave to appeal a recent decision that their client stands trial.
Earlier this month Queensland's Court of Appeal overturned a Brisbane District Court judge's ruling that Ferguson couldn't receive a fair trial.
