Sheriff Livingston rejected that request, stating: “If you drive down her and commit offences down here then you will be dealt with down here.”
He deferred sentence on Jackson, 78 Abbotsford Drive, Glenrothes, until September 8 for a restriction of liberty order assessment, a criminal justice social work report to be carried out and a DVLA printout to be produced.
