The Magistrate’s Court

A COURT will hear evidence to settle disputed facts in a domestic abuse case next month.

Matthew O’Halloran appeared in the Magistrate’s Court on Monday, when a Newton hearing was scheduled for 23 November.

The hearing will allow the court to decide which version of events to accept before determining a sentence.

Advocate James Corbett was defending and Relief Magistrate David Le Cornu was presiding.

O’Halloran remains on conditional bail.
