Co Tyrone woman to stand trial accused of stealing perfume valued at almost £800
A Co Tyrone woman has been returned for trial accused of stealing perfume valued at almost £800.
Thirty-six-year-old Patricia Anne Lappin from Torrent Valley, Coalisland, is charged with stealing perfume to the value of £500 from Gordon’s Chemist on July 1 last year.
She is also accused of stealing perfume to the value of £297.95 belonging to Savers on November 5 last.
When asked at a preliminary enquiry at Dungannon Magistrates Court on Friday if she wished to say anything in answer to the charges, Lappin replied: “No, thank you.”
She also replied “no, thank you” when asked by the court clerk if she wished to tender a written statement of evidence.
A prosecuting lawyer said she had a prima facie case to answer.
Deputy District Judge Brian Archer returned her for arraignment at Dungannon Crown Court on May 12.
He released her on personal bail of £500 with conditions.
