James George, 173 Howell Road, Potts Camp, appeared in court to answer charges of disregarding of a traffic device and expired driver’s license. He pleaded guilty to the charge but Judge Baker offered to drop the license charge if he gets one before the March 21 court date. He was fined $516.

Mary Alice Corley, 11056 Curtis Road, Batesville, charge for disregarding the traffic device will be remanded to the file upon approval by ticketing officer approval as it was a new stop sign on Pocahontas in Sardis that she did not know had been installed.

Jahari Love,  no address, has to return to court March 21 to answer charges of possession of two firearms in a moving vehicle with marijuana, seatbelt violation and no driver’s license. He has a permit for the guns but since he had drugs in the car with the firearms, there are some things the state has to approve for them to be returned to him, Judge Baker said.
