Murphy, who lives behind Evans on Pollard Street, said that her dog barks all of the time.

Evans testified that the dog barks when someone pulls into the driveway and when he is put in the pen so she can mow the lawn once a week.

Murphy had a tape recording of the dog barking.

"He is a dog, he is going to bark," said Evans.

Wanda Burney, who was a witness and is a neighbor to Evans, said, "I hear the dog bark, but not any more than anyone else’s dog. I spend a great deal of time in my yard and it doesn’t bother me."

The judge ruled that the evidence was credible.

A simple assault charge filed against Alicia Braxton, 211 Tubbs Rd., Batesville, was dismissed after Judge Westfaul ruled there was insufficient evidence to prove the charge.

Affiant Katonya Pride told the judge that Braxton "picks with" her because of her husband, and that Braxton had threatened her.

Both Pride and Braxton said that their problems started with a confrontation over the phone.

"I told her to come on," said Pride.

Braxton admitted she and Pride’s husband had been dating.

In dismissing the charge, the judge said, "Your behavior is childish and immature. You should be able to handle your problems with dignity."

Algeron Williams, 308 Pleasant Valley, Vicksburg, was found not guilty on a charge of petit larceny after the affiant, Diana Sowders, failed to appear to prosecute the case.

Calvert D. Smith, Dora St., Batesville, had two counts of simple assault continued.

"I want it continued to get my witnesses," said Smith.

Teresa Edwards, 103 Dora St., Batesville, entered a "not guilty" plea to simple assault. A trial date was set for June 28.

Eric Henderson, 818 Bethlehem Rd., Batesville, entered guilty pleas to possession of marijuana in a vehicle and careless driving. He was fined $736 and his license was suspended for six months.

He entered a not guilty plea to driving while license suspended.

"No one can tell me why my license are suspended," said Henderson.

Jarikk Smith and Jamarr Smith, 210 Gordan Dr., Batesville, both had disorderly conduct-failure to comply charges continued.

Christopher Whitten, 117 Hoskins Rd., Batesville, entered a guilty plea to DUI, no tag, no driver’s license and no proof of insurance. He was fined $1,774.

The judge said, "You are lucky. You almost got sent to jail."

He was told to have his fines paid in full within two weeks or serve 10 days in jail.

Airen Page Williams, 8322 Hwy. 35 South, Batesville, was sentenced to 45 days in jail for contempt of court-old fines of $1,626 that have been due since February 2004.
