Defence solicitor David Patterson said his 33-year-old client was no stranger to the courts but his appearances were becoming fewer and a background report would be useful.
Sheriff Gary Aitken agreed and rather than hear the full facts from fiscal depute Martina Eastwood, he deferred sentence until January 30 and allowed Cook's bail to continue.
