The ex-Arsenal striker was set to be sentenced at Hamilton Sheriff Court this week for bombarding his ex-girlfriend’s father with offensive text messages.
But Stokes, 32, told his lawyer he was undergoing trials with League of Ireland champions Shamrock Rovers and did not return to Scotland.
After the case was heard, Stokes appeared to make might of his legal situation in a post on social media.
