Hayden Black (26) had already pleaded guilty to an assault he committed at the Warehouse nightclub, Burnbank Road, Falkirk on November 17, 2018. The offence saw him punch a man repeatedly and cause him to fall to the ground.
Defence solicitor Simon Hutchison said Black, 47 Norwood Avenue, Bonnybridge, could not attend Falkirk Sheriff Court last Thursday because he had tested positive for COVID-19 and was now self isolating.

However, Sheriff Derek Livingston said: “He has a history of breaching court orders.
"If he had been here today I would probably have remanded him for the report to be taken.”
A warrant for Black’s arrest was issued.
