Heffner was found guilty with no fine imposed for false reporting of a crime. She had charged a city worker with sexual misconduct, but several city workers testified before the judge that it was the affiant who was acting lewdly on the work detail.

In other cases, Thomas Watkins, 217 Pearson St., Batesville, was found guilty of malicious mischief by destroying two tires on a Lincoln at Stanley’s Auto and four tires at Mississippi Title Loans. He also faces felony charges of burglary and grand larceny.

Watkins was enrolled in the city’s work release program for 13 days and was ordered to check back with the clerk’s office to see how much he owed for the tires.

Jason Bobo, 209 Vance St., Batesville, had a preliminary hearing for charges of armed robbery and aggravated assault.

Johnny Watson appeared in court and said he didn’t want to press charges for the aggravated assault.

Bobo was not released because he is also facing charges from the district attorney’s office.

James Turner, 104 Jackson St., Batesville, was referred to the grand jury for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.

Dustin Robertson of Debowen Wilson Road, Batesville, will be in court next week to face charges of burglary and grand larceny.

Dismissed
Teresa Brooks, 203 Deaton St., Batesville, had a petit larceny charge dismissed.

Brooks’ sister, Amanda Bowles, said Brooks had taken three Lortab pills from her.

Bowles said she couldn’t provide any witnesses.

"It takes more proof than that," said Judge McKenzie.

Roderick Hoskins, 29230 Hwy. 6 East, had a careless driving charge dismissed.

Harold Houston, 500 Armstrong, Batesville, had a stop sign violation dismissed after he told the judge he did stop at the sign on Hwy. 35, but the stop sign is off the road causing it to look like he didn’t stop.

Continued
Dempsey Cox, 1278 Shiloh Rd., Courtland, had DUI second, careless driving and no driver’s license charges continued.

Winston Weary, Booker T. St., Batesville, had contempt of court – old fines of $559 continued.

Joseph Wicks, 1680-A Good Hope, Batesville, had contempt of court- old fines of $610 continued after stating he had already paid the fine.

Judge McKenzie told him to come back with receipts.

Wicks also entered guilty pleas to speeding, no driver’s license and no proof of insurance. He was fined $997 due in 30 days.

Contempt of court
Kenrick Hughes, 102 Gracie Cove, Batesville, failed to appear for contempt of court – old fines of $744 that have been due since June 2003.

Failure to appear
Xazavagion Jones, 478 Teasdale, Enid, failed to appear for possession of marijuana within 1,500 feet of a school.

Elton Turner, 109 Martinez St., Batesville, failed to appear for charges of leaving the scene of an accident, no proof of insurance and no driver’s license.

Other
Marlon Jackson of Sardis entered a guilty plea to disturbance of a business by starting a fight with an employee at Piggly Wiggly. He was fined $265.

Tickets
JoAnna Alred, 220 Noble St., Batesville, was charged with no proof of insurance. She said she had proof the date the ticket was issued. She was given time to find proper documentation.

Elbert Smith, 775 Bethlehem Rd., Batesville, had a lower fine of $183 imposed after providing proof of insurance after the ticket was issued. He was also fined $115 for speeding.

Jack Wilkerson, 517 McCain Rd., Batesville, had a lower fine of $180 imposed after providing proof he had insurance after the ticket was issued.

Teresa Nichol Rudd, 155 MLK, Batesville, had false pretense charges withdrawn as proof was presented that someone else had committed the crime. The defendant was not guilty of the charge.
