Larry Fortensky, the construction worker who married Elizabeth Taylor last month, goes on trial next month on a 4-year-old drunken driving charge. Municipal Court Commissioner Stuart E. Glickman ordered a Dec. 13 trial at a Wednesday hearing. Fortensky's lawyer, Richard M. Moore, said he'll try to have the case dismissed. Fortensky was arrested in October 1987 on charges of drunken driving after he was pulled over in Riverside County. Fortensky and Taylor met at the Betty Ford Clinic in Rancho Mirage. Both were there to kick drug habits.
