A man accused of playing sectarian songs loudly at his home had his case thrown out of court.
Craig McPherson, 40, was alleged to have behaved in a threatening or abusive manner at his flat in Glasgow's Penilee.
Court papers stated McPherson played music and songs containing sectarian lyrics and phrases.
The music was claimed to have been played so loudly that it was overheard in neighbouring properties.
The charge was said to have been aggravated by religious prejudice.

McPherson appeared this week for trial at Glasgow Sheriff Court where he pleaded not guilty.
A warrant for McPherson had previously been granted on an earlier date after he did not attend court.
The hearing was told that the Crown’s essential witnesses did not attend court.
One of the witnesses were stated to have been unwell.
The motion to adjourn the trial was refused by Sheriff Collette Gallagher who deserted the matter simpliciter which brought an end to proceedings.
