The former Riverhead High School principal accused of sexually abusing an 18-year-old student is facing a possible default judgement in the civil case against him after he failed to appear for a conference in federal court Tuesday.
Magistrate Judge Steven Tiscione of the Eastern District Court of New York has ordered Charles Regan to appear on telephone conference June 11 to show cause why a default judgement should not be entered against him.
Mr. Regan has not been in contact with the court or any attorneys in the case in more than a year, according to the judge’s filing. In February 2020, he fired the attorneys he had initially hired to represent him and despite urging from that firm and the judge to seek new counsel, court records show he has not yet done so and is currently representing himself by default.

Jess Dunne doesn’t remember much about the day she gave birth to her daughter, Nova Rae Schott. It was Aug. 31, nearly three months before her due date. Her blood pressure was at what doctors termed “stroke level,” so she was given an epidural to prepare for a C-section that would bring her baby into the world 12 weeks before she was supposed to arrive. A team of 30 doctors and members of the neonatal intensive care unit were in the room as Ms. Dunne struggled through a haze of nerves and panic, trying to stay calm. Her partner, Christian Schott, was processing the same emotions as the doctors delicately brought Nova Rae forth into the world, weighing just 1 pound, 3 ounces.
