A 24-year-old Inverness man who admitted a domestic assault will be sentenced on March 6.

He also seized her by the leg and pulled her by the leg.
Defence solicitor David Patterson asked the sheriff to defer for a background report on his client who admitted previous convictions.
Sheriff Matheson agreed but also called for a restriction of liberty order assessment to be before her when Hooper appears again at Inverness Sheriff Court.
