The sentencing of a Greenwich man who assaulted a woman has been rescheduled after he turned up at the wrong court.
Mark Stenhouse, of Defence Close, was due to appear at the Old Bailey after he was convicted of assault causing actual bodily harm.
However, the 48-year-old instead turned up at Woolwich Crown Court which was where previous hearings had taken place.
Judge James Lewis KC adjourned the sentencing until April 25 at the Old Bailey.
He warned Stenhouse's representative that he must ensure he turns up on that date.
