Defence lawyer Tim Hemsley said he understood the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions was going to elect to take over the prosecution of Christopher Kramer's matters from police.

Kramer, wearing a red T-shirt emblazoned with an "adidas" logo, did not make any comment during his brief appearance before Mr Funston via a video link to the Albury police station cells.
