Simon M. Beacom, 20, of Omaha appeared in front of the Honorable Donna Taylor in the Antelope County courtroom in Neligh last Wednesday for pretrial conference on two Class 3 misdemeanor counts alleged June 24, minor in possession of alcohol (age 19/20) and misrepresenting his age to obtain liquor, as well as a count of violating probation that was ordered for his conviction of similar offenses last spring.
On his behalf, his attorney, Martin Klein of Neligh, asked Taylor to set a bench trial date, indicating Beacom waived his right to jury trial. Taylor set the trial for 2:30 p.m., Dec. 7, saying the rest of the day would be blocked out.
Bond, in the amount of $1,500, 10%, posted June 25, is continued and Taylor reminded Beacom he remains on probation
“Keep working on your probation,” she said.
Two cases were continued.
Lynn D. Koinzan, 62, of Elgin who is accused of a Class 3 misdemeanor count of reckless driving, had his pretrial hearing continued to Nov. 19, while a preliminary hearing for Koda K. Fernau, 18, of Clearwater is now set for Nov. 2 on a felony count of making terroristic threats, and for arraignment on two misdemeanor counts of disturbing the peace.
