Paul Farren (36) of Rivercourt in Derry appeared facing a total of 10 charges.
He was charged with five counts of assaulting police officers on February 28.
Farren was further charged with criminal damage, spitting in a police vehicle, tearing a jumper belonging to the PSNI, damaging a microphone and disorderly behaviour all of which were said to have occurred on February 28.
