He appeared from custody at Jedburgh Sheriff Court.

He faces charges of stalking and controlling behaviour towards his wife Gillian over a seven-year period, which he denies.

He was arrested in February at her home for allegedly causing her fear and alarm.

He is facing a number of allegations, including that he acted aggressively towards his wife, accused her of infidelity, repeatedly tracked her movements and monitored her communication with others over several years.

The trial has now been set for 4 November at Selkirk Sheriff Court.
