He was not required to plead to the allegations when he appeared before the Acting Chief Magistrate Roberto Reckley.
The matter was adjourned to October 17 for presentation on a VBI.
Cornish's lawyer Owen Wells said he wanted an early trial date.
He said he intended to seek bail immediately for his client.
