On February 1, Cardiff Magistrates Court granted the orders submitted by the Child Maintenance Service for payment as it was satisfied that the defendants owed the money, had been given sufficient notice, and had failed to pay one or more instalments, with the payments still not having been made.

Also in court recently in Cardiff was a Pembrokeshire man who failed to provide information to police and a speeding Pembrokeshire resident.

Robert Evans, 38, of Nevern, was found guilty of failing to provide information by Cardiff Magistrates Court on January 18.
