Tim Curley and Gary Schultz formalized their not-guilty pleas Friday, entering court paperwork and waiving a court appearance that had been scheduled for next week, CNN reported.

Curley, on paid leave as Penn State’s athletic director, and Schultz, retired as a university vice president, are charged with perjury and failure to report in connection with the Jerry Sandusky child-sexual-abuse case. Both men have maintained that they are innocent.

In December, after a preliminary hearing in Harrisburg, the cases against Curley and Schultz were ordered to move forward to a trial phase. It’s not clear exactly when that trial may begin.
