A LAW-breaking Hereford man with a 'flagrant disregard' for court orders has been jailed after he was caught behind the wheel.
Shretim Hysa entered a guilty plea to one count of driving without insurance, one count of driving without a valid MOT, and one count of driving while disqualified when he appeared before magistrates in Northampton in August.
The court heard from prosecutor Julie Costello that the 36-year-old, who was represented at the hearing by defence solicitor Matthew Aldwinckle, had been caught driving a blue Vauxhall Zafira in Orion Way in Kettering on August 22.

The car did not have a valid MOT certificate in place and Hysa did not have a valid third party insurance policy in place at the time, the court heard.
He had also been driving while disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence.
Hysa, of Chancel View, Belmont, Hereford, was jailed for 16 weeks, with magistrates saying the offences were so serious that only a custodial sentence could be justified, as he has a flagrant disregard for court orders.
He was also disqualified from driving for two years and ordered to pay a £154 victim surcharge.
