A Waterloo man was sentenced to four years of community-controlled sanctions for domestic violence.

Thomas Clay, 27, of 22895 State Route 141, Waterloo, pleaded guilty in Lawrence County Common Pleas Court Wednesday to two counts of felony domestic violence.

Judge D. Scott Bowling sentenced Clay to four years of CCS that includes the successful completion of the STAR community justice program. Bowling also imposed a restraining order between Clay and the victim and ordered Clay to pay court costs.

In other cases:

Joshua M. Mosley, 28, of 100 Township Road 1436 Unit D., South Point, admitted violating his CCS by failing to report to adult probation and testing positive for illegal drugs. Bowling sentenced Mosley to the STAR program and ordered that he stay in jail until that time.

Brittani Spry, 25, of 214 Township Road 1430 Apt. 18, South Point, denied a CCS violation. A CCS trial has been set for next week.

Alvaro F. Jaime, 26, of 217 Second Ave., Chesapeake, was resentenced for a CCS violation. Jaime was originally sentenced to the STAR program but was not accepted due to a medical condition. Bowling resentenced the man to eight months in prison.

Robert Prince, 35, of 8580 Gallia Pike, Franklin Furnace, denied a CCS violation. Bowling set a CCS trial for next week.

Teresa A. Hensley, 40, of 1215 S. Fourth St., Ironton, admitted violating her CCS by not reporting to adult probation. Judge Charles Cooper ordered that Hensley be returned to CCS and that she report regularly to adult probation.

James R. Hankins, 50, of 2388 Centenary Road, Gallipolis, pleaded guilty to aggravated drug possession, a fifth-degree felony, and possession of paraphernalia, a misdemeanor. Cooper sentenced Hankins to four years of CCS that includes the STAR program as well as a 30-day suspended jail sentence. Hankins is also ordered to pay a $1,250 fine and his driver’s license will be suspended six months.

Scott Ulery, 50, of 2110 S. Ninth St., was in Bowling’s courtroom regarding a bond forfeiture.

Ulrey had previously been sentenced for grand theft to four years of community-controlled sanctions.

His father, Leo Ulery, who paid the bond, was before the court as well to sign off on the forfeiture. The bond will be put towards Ulrey’s restitution, which is owed to CVS in the amount of $13,800.

Gregory D. Caudill, 31, of 1136 W. Little Garner Road, Ashland, Ky., pleaded guilty Tuesday to aggravated possession of drugs, a fifth-degree felony. Bowling sentenced Caudill to four years of CCS that includes the STAR program, ordered him to pay a $1,250 fine and ordered that his driver’s license be suspended for six months.
