The applications of a North Okanagan mother and daughter to vary bail conditions related to animal cruelty charges were adjourned in Vernon court today.

Carla Christman and her daughter Chelsea Christman-Beluse are each facing a charge of causing unnecessary pain/suffering to an animal, failing to provide necessities for an animal and wilfully resisting or obstructing a peace officer. Carla is also facing a charge of dangerous operation of a conveyance.

A total of 43 horses, plus four dogs and four hogs, were seized from Christman91裸聊视频檚 Irish Creek Road property in March 2019.

Carla appeared in court at 2 p.m. in a wheelchair to represent herself. She told Provincial Court Judge Richard Hewson that she submitted her application in order to have care and control over the four seized dogs again.

Chelsea, who did not attend, was represented by defence lawyer Joe Deuling.

Deuling said that he had just been retained and suggested that Chelsea91裸聊视频檚 application be adjourned to a later date.

Despite this, Carla said she preferred to proceed with her application because 91裸聊视频渢he dogs really do want to have contact with [them].91裸聊视频

Carla said the dogs have been returned to the care of a friend and are being held in kennels.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 not fair to them to leave them in that situation,91裸聊视频 she said.

However, Hewson said that if Chelea91裸聊视频檚 application was being adjourned, Carla91裸聊视频檚 should also be adjourned since they are similar.

The matters were put over to the provincial case manager91裸聊视频檚 office on June 19 to fix a new date for proceedings.
