>A West Virginia judge yesterday ordered actor-comedian Andy Dick to stand trial on felony sexual abuse charges stemming from a nightclub incident last year. Cabell County Circuit Judge Paul Farrell set trial for Jan. 17 and ordered the entertainer to submit to a urine test. The judge said the test was standard to determine if defendants are positive for drugs, but he also told Dick, “I suspect you may be.’’ Farrell told Dick he would be jailed if he returned to court for a pre-trial hearing in September under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Dick, 45, is accused of grabbing a bouncer’s crotch and groping and kissing a male patron earlier at a Huntington bar in January 2010. (AP)
