    Former Ohio State quarterback Art Schlichter remained jailed after making a brief court appearance on a charge of stealing more than $1 million from a 68-year-old woman.

    The 50-year-old Schlichter appeared in Franklin County Municipal Court in Columbus on Tuesday. A judge agreed to his requests to waive a preliminary hearing and pass on having bond set.

    Schlichter's case was immediately transferred to the county common pleas court system, where assistant prosecutor Jay Moore said Schlichter could face additional charges.
