Bellaghy man in court accused of damaging windows and plant pot
A South Derry man was released on continuing bail when he appeared at Magherafelt Magistrates Court on a criminal damage charge.
District Judge Conor Heaney heard on Wednesday from a Public Prosecution Service lawyer that they would require more time in order to ascertain the monetary cost of the damage.
Before the court was 35-year-old Paul James Mallon, of William Street, Bellaghy, who is accused of damaging windows and a plant pot on June 19 this year.


A police officer told the court that he believed he could connect Mallon to the charge.
Judge Heaney adjourned the case until August 12 for an update from the Prosecution Service, and granted continuing bail to the accused.
He told Mallon not to have any contact, either directly or indirectly, with the alleged injured party.
The judge also made it a condition of the bail that the accused does not enter Beatrice Villas in Bellaghy.
