The sentence hearing for Dean James Clark has been listed for the District Court sittings in Albury due to begin on November 5.

The matter initially had been expected to be finalised in the October sittings but, along with several other cases, has had to be adjourned.

Clark’s sentence will be determined by Judge Robert Sutherland.

Magistrate Rodney Brender committed Clark, 49, of Jiliby on the NSW Central Coast, for sentence after he fronted Albury Local Court back in May.

That was on a dozen charges, though some were withdrawn including a count of being armed with the intention of committing an indictable offence.

The matters on which Clark will be sentenced include handling or using a firearm under the effect of alcohol or drugs, common assault, stalk and intimidate, firing a firearm in or near a public place, resist police, intimidate a police officer in the execution of duty and two counts of not keeping a firearm safely.

The charges relate to an incident that took place in early November, 2017, as the victim, 26, walked to a friend’s house.

Clark pulled up beside him in his ute with a handgun on the driver’s seat.

He asked where he could buy cannabis and methamphetamine then picked up the .357 Smith and Wesson revolver, in which police said the victim could see “what looked like red bullet tips in the cylinder”.

When the victim returned home later that night his housemate said there had been a visitor, who left him a business card.

Clark parked outside the man’s house on the night of December 9 about 10.30 then approached the front door.

He asked: “Can you get me some green, can you help me mate?”

Clark was let inside then unzipped his jacked and pulled the gun from a holster on his hip.

After Clark left the house, the victim heard a gunshot, saw a flash and then heard up to another five shots.
