Jeffrey Donaldson is due in court in two weeks following a brief review at Newry Crown Court today.
The former DUP leader was found guilty of 18 counts of historical child sex abuse against two victims in June following a four week trial.
His wife Eleanor Donaldson was found to have committed five acts of aiding and abetting her husband, but cannot be criminally convicted.
Judge Paul Ramsey confirmed he has received two Victim Impact Reports and said a probation report has been completed.
Jeffrey Donaldson was not required to attend today’s hearing.
