Kristopher Castle, 26 at the time of the incident, appeared in Shepparton Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, November 19 for a committal mention.
The charge follows an incident where it will be alleged two people were involved in an altercation on Hargrave Crt in Yarrawonga, before Ms Sanders attempted to intervene.
He is also charged with making a threat to kill, and committing an indictable offence while on bail, on the same day.
Mr Castle was remanded on bail to appear again on February 3 for a committal hearing where five witnesses will be cross-examined.
The hearing is expected to take one and a half days.
