The defendant was warned by police about her behaviour but in February 2009, police took a second statement from the injured party who said Termonia had shouted loudly at her while the injured party was in Ballymena town centre, causing her embarrassment.
Barrister Richard Smyth said: “This was really a history that involved her older sister and the injured party. The height of the allegations are verbal abuse.
“It is something you might encounter in a school playground - one person says one thing and another person says another.
