After using a positive COVID-19 test to skip court four times, a Tasmanian woman has been told by a judge that she must wear a mask for her next visits.
In court yesterday, Kirra-Dhe Matson-Clarke claimed she had tested positive to COVID-19 and provided a phone number to appear by phone.

Matson-Clarke is facing charges of breach of bail, drug driving and possession of a prohibited substance.
According to The Examiner, the police prosecutor revealed that she had previously claimed to be COVID-19 positive on three other occasions.
The magistrate warned Matson-Clarke that she must appear in court wearing a mask or a warrant for her arrest will be issued.
The court proceedings have been adjourned until September 18 for a plea.
