Court Report
Delinquent bills draw no sympathy in court
By Emily Williams

Judge Bill McKenzie swore Andre Pegues in as an officer of the Batesville Police Department before Batesville Municipal Court Wednesday.

"I won’t impose a fine, because you served 24 hours in jail," the judge said.

Officer Jud Moore testified that he was called to the scene by Toney’s sister.

Moore said when he arrived at the scene, the defendant’s mother had bruises on her arm and said the defendant had grabbed her, but she didn’t want him to go to jail.

Moore also explained that by law if any evidence is shown that violence has occurred, that it is his duty to make an arrest.

Toney testified that there was an argument, but he never put his hands on his mother.

Toney said he and his sister had an argument and when his mom tried to "pop" him in the mouth for making vulgar comments, he grabbed her arms.

"This was a verbal argument, not physical," Toney said.

"Domestic violence can be verbal. Blood doesn’t have to spill," the judge said.

"I think the evidence is clear," he added.

Elgin Lamar, 101 Tindall Cove, Batesville, entered a guilty plea and was fined $486 for domestic violence-simple assault and careless driving. Lamar also had a fine of $356 for a driving while license suspended ticket.

David Herring, Skyline 401, Batesville, had a domestic violence-simple assault on a minor case continued.

Grand jury
James Barber, 202-A Pollard St., Batesville, had burglary and petit larceny charges referred to the grand jury.

DUI
Melvin Rockett, 335 Shamrock, Batesville, entered a guilty plea to DUI and careless driving. He was fined $857.

Dismissed
Jayunn Whitten, 117 Hoskins Rd., Batesville, had a malicious mischief case dismissed after the affiant Laketa Taylor failed to appear to prosecute.

Stephanie Boyette, 211 Court St., Batesville, had a simple assault case dismissed after the affiant Joy Redwine failed to appear to prosecute.

Other
James Weaver, 5806 Shady Grove, Sardis, had a disorderly conduct-failure to comply charge remanded to the files for six months pending good behavior.

Jimmy Miles, 210 Fisher St., Batesville, entered a guilty plea to possession of controlled substance (misdemeanor). He was fined $355.

Lisa Strong, 211 Tubbs Rd., Batesville, entered a guilty plea to disturbance of a family by entering the home of a family using profane language.

Tickets
Robert W. Odom, was fined $275 for no proof of insurance and expired tag.

Christopher Tisdale, 88 Floyd’s Island, Sardis, had a no driver’s license and no proof of insurance charges continued.

Christy Parker, Meadowview #A-H, Batesville, entered a "not guilty" plea to a stop sign violation and no child restraint. Her trial will be heard on December 20.

Dedric L. Sanford, 64 Otto Sanford, Courtland, entered a "not guilty" plea to careless driving and will have a trial December 20.

Eric Henderson, 818 Bethlehem Rd., Batesville, had a no proof of insurance charge dismissed after providing proof he had insurance before the ticket was issued.

Adam D. Lester, 1056 Henderson Rd., Batesville, was fined $281 for no driver’s license.

Turkessa McKinney, 206 Tubbs Rd., Batesville, was fined $1,344 for no driver’s license, no proof of insurance and expired tag.

Monica A. McKinney, 1303-A Hentz Rd., Batesville, was fined $281 for no driver’s license.

"The law applies to the McKinney family also," the judge said after finding out the McKinneys are sisters.

Charlene Fonville, 24037 Hwy. 310, Como, was fined $184 for expired tag.

The judge had ruled on the ticket a few weeks ago, but Fonville was back in court to ask if she could get the ticket dismissed.

She had been unable to acquire a current car tag because she had an unpaid bill with Panola County’s solid waste department. Typically those with delinquent garbage service accounts are "flagged" and prevented from purchasing car tags until the garbage bill is settled.

After she paid her garbage bill she was able to get her car tag.

The judge told her she still had to pay the fine, but gave her an extension on the payment date.
