Coleman, 39, of Randolph appeared in Antelope County Court last week, alongside his court-appointed attorney, Martin Klein of Neligh for preliminary hearing on a Class 3A felony, third-degree domestic assault, second offense, alleged March 12 in Neligh.

Bond posted March 27 is continued at $20,000, 10% cash, with conditions including no contact with the alleged victim.

Ryan J. Pelster, appeared to show cause for waiver of a 30-day jail stent, ordered as part of an Oct. 19 probation sentence for his conviction of a Class 1 misdemeanor, operating a motor vehicle to avoid arrest. Pelster told the judge he had complied with all terms of probation, had paid all fees and had completed out-patient treatment and aftercare. A letter received from the probation officer confirmed what Pelster told the judge. Taylor waived the jail time.
