Donny also had a hearing on Friday.
Pornographer-turned-pastor Donny Pauling Jr. and Sutter County sheriff's Capt. Lewis McElfresh Jr., both charged with child sex crimes, made brief appearances in separate courtrooms on Friday.
McElfresh, 57, is accused of watching Pauling have sex with a minor. He appeared in Sutter County Superior Court, but the hearings were continued. He has yet to enter a plea.
His attorney, Jesse Santana, filed a motion to oppose the district attorney's attempts to subpoena medical records for the minor. The hearing and arraignment are scheduled for March 6.
Pauling is accused of unlawful sex with two minors.
He appeared in court briefly, but his court hearing was continued and reset for March 13.
District Attorney Amanda Hopper applied for and received a criminal protective order barring Pauling from contacting the minor involved in both cases.
Hopper said the request was a response to "Facebook contact."
