Storylines[]
The magistrate at Ricky Butcher's court case for handling stolen goods. Marcus Christie tells Phil Mitchell that she is usually very fair; however, she had been a victim of car theft the night before and therefore made an example of Ricky. She fines him £500 in court costs, as well as 180 hours of community service which he will need to serve over a maximum of 12 months, meaning he will miss his honeymoon with Bianca Jackson.
