MARINETTE, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – A Little Chute High School teacher has been ordered to stand trial on charges he sexually assaulted a friend of his daughter.
45-year-old Jason LaVigne is charged with third-degree sexual assault for the June 2 incident near Crivitz.
He appeared in Marinette County court Monday for a preliminary hearing, at which a judge ruled there is enough evidence for the case to proceed.
Online court records indicate the judge also approved LaVigne’s lawyer’s request for a change of bond conditions.
LaVigne may now have contact with people under 18 years old, as long as another adult is present.
LaVigne is due back in court to enter a plea Sept. 21.
Meanwhile, LaVigne also faces a charge of repeated sexual assault of a child for incidents that allegedly happened with a student at Little Chute High School in 1999. He is due back in Outagamie County court July 26 for the case.
LaVigne remains on leave from the Little Chute school district.
