A man has appeared at Derry Magistrate's Court charged with disorderly behavior following a fight outside Peadar O'Donnell's.
Cillian McLaughlin (20) of Strabane Old Road in Derry was charged after police were called to a report of a fight outside the bar seen on CCTV.
McLaughlin was seen with blood on his t-shirt and police were told by security that he was banned for life from the bar.
When he attempted to return, he was pushed away by doormen.
Defence solicitor Seamus Quigley said that McLaughlin 'hasn't drank since the incident' that happened around the anniversary of his mother's death.
Deputy District Judge Brian Archer deferred sentencing for six months, to July 24.
