Miss Johnson added: “She gave her a back hander to the mouth, probably causing the cut lip.”
Harrison had been given a conditional caution for the offence in June, but had to attend court because she had failed to pay her victim �150 compensation in the allocated time. She had previously written a letter of apology.
Harrison had told police: “I am not a violent person, I hate the example I have set to my daughter.”
The magistrates also ordered her to pay �85 court costs.
