She is Jodie Johnston, from Windsor Hill, Waringstown.
Johnston’s barrister Mr Conor Coulter said it is theft by employee and suggested a Pre Sentence Report.
District Judge Michael Ranaghan said the defendant would get credit for pleading early to the charge as no witnesses were required to attend court.
"I know very little about the case bar what Mr Coulter has just told me so you will get the benefit of a Pre Sentence Report,” said the District Judge.
"I strongly advise you to attend with Probation,” he said.
The case was adjourned until July 22 this year for sentencing. Legal Aid to include counsel was granted.
