ROCKLAND — The following cases were closed in Knox County Criminal Court from Feb. 1-5. The Unified Criminal Court is a system for processing criminal actions and certain associated civil violation actions. It is expected to increase efficiency by eliminating the duplicative clerical workload created by the current system of case transfer between the District and Superior Court by reducing the number of court appearances required to process individual cases, according to the State of Maine Judicial Branch.

Linda Athearn, 64, of Rockland, domestic violence assault, dismissed.

Jeffrey W. Cash Jr., 30, of Owls Head, criminal mischief, $250 fine.
