The theft occurred in Offaly last September.
A homeless man accused of a €10,000 equipment theft in Offaly did not appear in court on yesterday morning because he had slept in.
Tullamore District Court heard that Robert Kelly, aged 34 and with addresses in 52 Fr Paul Murphy Street and 146 Greenwood Park, Edenderry, was living in a tent in the Phoenix Park.
His legal representative, barrister Suzanne Dooner, asked Judge Catherine Staines for a further remand and explained that the accused had family in Dublin.
Judge Staines said it was the second time Mr. Kelly had not appeared in court.
She made a peremptory adjournment to next Wednesday, February 3, saying Mr Kelly would have to come to Tullamore the night before.
Sergeant James O'Sullivan told the court the book of evidence in the case was ready.
Mr Kelly is accused of stealing electronic equipment worth €10,150 from Fone Geek, Edenderry, between September 17 and September 18 last year.
On January 6, the court heard he was not present because his solicitor had told him he did not have to attend.
