JUDGMENT

 

 

THE BAILIFF:

 

1.            Miss Lavery you are very close to going to prison for the offences which you committed last year.  When the Court imposes a Probation Order with a requirement for Community Service, its performance is not optional.  We hope you understand that fully.

 

2.            It is only because we have read in the background report and in the other reports which we have received that you are generally making such good progress that we are prepared to give you one final chance to complete the Community Service which the Court ordered you to carry out last May.

 

3.            The Court is now going to extend the period for completion of the Community Service, so that it must be completed by November, 2000.

 

4.            We hope that you will take this opportunity and we do not wish to see you here again.
