KEY POINTS:
A judge says lawyers at the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper have a week to respond to a motion asking for a reporter to testify at R. Kelly's child pornography trial.
The defence wants to call Jim DeRogatis to ask how he got hold of a sex tape at the centre of the trial. A lawyer for the paper says DeRogatis' actions should be privileged under the constitution. The judge says he will rule on the motion on May 30.
Kelly is charged with child pornography for allegedly videotaping himself having sex with an underage girl. He has pleaded not guilty.
