Trina Lee Oliver is facing one count of stealing property as a clerk worth more than $150,000 after she was charged by Tamworth detectives late last year.

According to court documents, the 44-year-old is accused of stealing $935,539.70 from Red River Rural in Nemingha.

Detectives allege Oliver, who used to live in Dungowan, stole the cash between February 1, 2014, and May 11, 2015.

Oliver appeared in Tamworth Local Court on Tuesday, after the DPP took over the prosecution because of the amount of money alleged to have been stolen.

The court heard Oliver was charged by way of a future court attendance notice in December, but Crown solicitor Cameron Reynolds said the DPP had lodged a detention application, which was filed in January.

Mr Reynolds said that, because of “the seriousness of the offences”, there were bail concerns.

“The Crown says there would be a bail concern and that is the risk of flight,” he told the court.

“We’re asking for bail to be imposed.”

Solicitor John Glynn said he had been in discussions with the DPP over the bail concern and the request.

“She was interviewed by police and charged by way of a future court attendance notice rather than by charging,” he said.

The Crown tendered proposed bail conditions to the court, which Mr Glynn said were consented to by his client.

As part of the bail, Oliver will reside in Queensland and report to police every day.

“Bail conditions by consent,” Magistrate Roger Prowse said, adding he would not have granted the application ordinarily.

“Only because there is consent. They’re concerned about flight, despite the fact you have turned up to court twice.”

Mr Reynolds asked for an adjournment to allow investigators further time to gather financial statements and evidence, which he said would be quite lengthy.

“The brief is a voluminous amount,” he said.

“A partial brief has been served.”

The case returns to court in March.
