At Ballymena Magistrates Court on Thursday the case was adjourned to April 9 to fix a date for a contest.

At an earlier court a defence solicitor said it is a "theft matter from an employer from my reading of the (case) papers".

Full details of the allegations have yet to be outlined to the court.
