PHILADELPHIA — A Philadelphia priest accused of molesting a teen won't get a mistrial over the use of testimony from his church trial.

A judge has denied the request from the Rev. James Brennan.

The jury is deliberating for an eighth day after hearing the accuser's testimony from the canon trial this week.

Defense lawyer William Brennan, no relation, asked for a mistrial today. He says the jury should not have heard the testimony during deliberations when it was not aired at trial.

However, prosecutors say the transcript is in evidence, and the judge agreed to have it read Tuesday.
