Draperstown motorist given interim driving disqualification for driving with excess alcohol
A young South Derry motorist was given an interim driving disqualification when he appeared in court on a drink-driving charge.
Jay-Lee Conway, aged 23, from Glengomna Road, Draperstown, faces a charge of driving while having consumed excess alcohol in breath in the vicinity of Cloane Road, Draperstown, on March 14 this year.
Conway is also charged with driving a BMW car with no insurance on the same date.
A police officer told Magherafelt Magistrates Court that he could connect the defendant to the charges before the court.
A defence lawyer said there would be a plea entered to the charge of excess alcohol, but he asked the court to give him to some time to write to the Public Prosecution Service in regard to the no insurance charge.
He also suggested that the court impose an interim disqualification.
Imposing the interim driving disqualification, Deputy District Judge Noel Dunlop adjourned the case until April 22.
