INDIANAPOLIS » A federal judge has scheduled a Nov. 19 change-of-plea and sentencing hearing for former Subway pitchman Jared Fogle.

U.S. District Judge Tanya Walton Pratt posted the scheduling order Friday, two days after Fogle agreed to plead guilty to allegations that he paid for sex acts with girls as young as 16 and received child pornography produced by the former director of his charitable foundation.

The suburban Indianapolis man is expected to enter a formal plea to one count each of traveling to engage in illicit sexual conduct with a minor and distribution and receipt of child pornography.

A plea agreement says prosecutors won’t seek a sentence of more than 12½ years in prison and that Fogle won’t ask for less than five.

Fogle has been released on home detention.
