A judge in Indianapolis denied defense attorneys’ motions seeking dismissal of rape and related charges against former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson.

During a 50-minute hearing, Marion Superior Court Judge Patricia J. Gifford denied five defense motions, four dealing with the status of charges against Tyson and a fifth seeking assignment of a new judge for the case.

The rulings left in place the four-count indictment against Tyson, who faces trial Jan. 27.
