Kylie Nixon, 23, pleaded guilty to false representation resulting in a police investigation after she admitted to an offence that occurred on October 27, 2009.
Police were called to a Queanbeyan residence by Nixon on the morning of October 27 after she alleged that she was being assaulted and intimidated.
She called police again that day, which led to the arrest of a man on October 30.
From the police facts, Nixon went to Queanbeyan Police Station on November 5 and admitted that she had lied to police about the alleged assaults and intimidation.
The court was told that the Queanbeyan resident had a good work history and was trained as a beauty therapist.
Nixon, who is currently expecting her first child in three weeks, had been in a relationship over three years but is now living with her parents.
She was deeply ashamed about her behaviour that led to police attending her residence after she made a call that was described as being on the lower end of the scale for a public mischief offence.
It was said that she did not lie in court, but Magistrate Brian Van Zuylen was quick to point out that she did to police while under oath.
“It costs the community a lot of time and trouble to investigate these,” he said.
He added that people had received suspended prison sentences and community service orders for committing her particular offence.
However, Nixon was placed on a Section 9 good behaviour bond for 12 months, fined $500 and ordered to pay court costs.
