Christmas can’t come quickly enough for this fella.
A 33-year old man has been barred from entering every licensed premises in Dublin for six months after becoming involved in a drunken altercation with another man last October.
According to the Irish Independent, Jonathan Marry from Balbriggan in Dublin was given a six-month suspended sentence after pleading guilty to being intoxicated, using threatening and abusive behaviour and resisting arrest at a McDonald’s in a shopping centre in Balbriggan last year.
Garda Wayne Keown was called to a McDonald’s at Millfield Shopping Centre in Balbriggan at 12.20pm on the day in question last October, where Marry was said to have been drunk and was behaving in a threatening manner.
A charge of assaulting the Garda was withdrawn by the state.
As well as handing down a suspended six-month prison sentence to Marry, who has 16 previous convictions, Judge Alan Mitchell fined him €300.
Judge Mitchell also made an exclusion order barring Marry from entering every licensed premises in Dublin for six months, saying that if Marry was going to “stay on the straight and narrow,” he had “nothing to fear”.
If Marry was being really brazen he could pop over the county border to Wicklow, Meath or Kildare for a cheeky pint, but we think we know the point the judge was trying to make.
