Cat filter disrupts Michigan court hearing

A 22-year-old Michigan man appeared in a virtual court hearing with a cat filter accidentally activated on his camera while pleading guilty to an assault and battery charge from an incident in Van Buren Township. After apologizing and removing the filter, the court proceeded with his case, granting him 12 months of non-reporting probation under HYTA, along with a fine and an order to avoid contact with the victim.
