Hide AdCCTV showed the defendant involved in a confrontation with another man in Church Square.
A fight was going on between them.
A solicitor representing Finn said he had spent time in custody and was out briefly when this occurred. He was still on licence.
He said that a pre-sentence report indicated that probation could not provide assistance and Finn was not in a position to meet a financial penalty.
Deputy District Judge Laura Ievers said the case passed the custody threshold but went on to sentence him to two months in prison, suspended for 12 months.
