The former Newcastle and Liverpool striker indicated a not guilty plea to the charge at Chelmsford Magistrates\u2019 Court on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Carroll is charged with breaching the order made by the Family Court at Chelmsford Justice Centre by allegedly repeatedly calling in March last year his ex-wife, Billi Mucklow, who has featured on reality TV show The Only Way Is Essex.<\/p>\n
The 37-year-old, who currently plays for National League South club Dagenham & Redbridge, played nine matches for England between 2010 and 2012, scoring twice, including one goal at Euro 2012.<\/p>\n
Wearing a green coat and using crutches with a foot brace on his left foot, Carroll spoke to confirm his name, address and date of birth at the brief hearing.<\/p>\n
Asked if he would like to be tried in a magistrates or crown court, Carroll said: \u201cCrown please.\u201d<\/p>\n
District Judge Roy Brown bailed Carroll and he will next appear at Chelmsford Crown Court on March 4th.<\/p>\n
The judge told Carroll: \u201cYour next appearance at court will be at Chelmsford Crown Court on March 4th for a plea and trial preparation hearing.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn that occasion you will be asked to enter a plea, if it remains a not guilty plea then arrangements will be made for a trial.\u201d<\/p>\n
