DELHI _ A former substitute teacher at Franklin Central School who pleaded guilty Jan. 15 to two counts of first-degree sexual abuse was not sentenced Monday as scheduled.
Robert R. Becker Jr., 36, of Franklin, was scheduled to be sentenced to one year in jail, 10 years of probation and registration as a sex offender, but the proceeding was postponed at the request of Delaware County District Attorney Richard Northrup.
Northrup asked for an adjournment to give him time to make additional motions in the case.
The case was rescheduled for March 30, when the sentencing will proceed or a hearing on Northrup's motions will be held.
Becker, a former county corrections officer, pleaded guilty in county court to third-degree rape, endangering the welfare of a child and second-degree attempted sexual abuse.
Becker was arraigned in September on two indictments charging him with having sex with students and attempting sexual contact with other students. Northrup said there are five victims.
The charges alleged that Becker engaged in sexual intercourse and sexual contact, both by forcible compulsion, with two victims, each of whom was younger than 17, officials said.
