He is charged with assaulting a male PSNI officer on May 9, 2024. The court was told a date was set for contest on November 13.
Stinson’s barrister Ms Ciara O’Neill said there were no issues ahead of the contest on their side and the Prosecution said they also had no issues to raise.
District Judge Michael Ranaghan said his notes said there are eight witnesses on the papers.
A Prosecutor said she would check but revealed she had four prosecution witnesses. “I’m not sure how many there are for the defence side.”
The District Judge said because there were no issues the case will go through to contest on November 13.
