A Douglas woman who tried to import cannabis to the Island will appear in court again next month.

Lisa Kim Barnett of Marathon Road in Douglas appeared before High Bailiff Jayne Hughes via a live videolink from prison.

At an earlier hearing, the 42 year old pleaded guilty to attempting to possess class B drugs with intent to supply them and producing the drugs on January 29.

She was committed for sentencing in the Court of General Gaol Delivery, where she'll appear on May 21, and was remanded in custody until that date.
