A solicitor for the defendant said his client had a drink problem which was reflected in his record.
Deputy District Judge Neil Rafferty told the defendant this happened some time ago and since then he had been in and out of prison.
He warned Vaitekunas if he kept on the way he was going he was going to end up in prison for longer.
The judge imposed a conditional discharge for 12 months.
