Trial Date Set For 'Little People' Star

POSTED: 5:17 pm PST November 9, 2007
UPDATED: 12:11 am PST November 10, 2007

A trial date has been set for television star Matt Roloff, who is accused of driving under the influence.

Roloff stars in "Little People, Big World," a reality television show on The Learning Channel that focuses on the lives of Roloff, his wife and his son, all of whom are dwarfs.

He appeared in court Friday and a trial date was set for Dec. 5.

In June, a Washington County deputy pulled Roloff over as he was driving on West Union Road.

Deputies said Roloff failed a field sobriety test and was arrested. He was taken to the Washington County Jail and cited on charges of DUII, refusing a breath test and failing to drive within a lane.

It was the second time Roloff had been linked to a driving under the influence charge. In 2003, he had a DUII charge dismissed after completing an alcohol diversion program.

Roloff and his family live on a farm in Helvetia, Ore.
