Kyle Kelbie, 19, had sentence deferred at Dundee Sheriff Court to allow six separate complaints to be dealt with.
Kelbie, of Sibbald Street, appeared from custody after failing to appear for sentence last month.
Solicitor Doug McConnell said Kelbie had arrived at court late. A warrant had already been issued for his arrest and could not be recalled.
Kelbie previously admitted breaching his community payback order, imposed for offences committed in 2015, by failing to comply with social workers.
He pleaded guilty to breaking into a house occupied by his uncle Hugh Kelbie, at Alexander Street, on March 20 2015 and stealing two games consoles, a computer tablet, a jar containing £5, deodorant, tobacco and gas lighter fluid.
Kelbie also admitted threatening and abusive behaviour in a police van and at police HQ, in Bell Street, on the same date.
He further admitted stealing mobile telephones at McGill & Co, Harrison Road, on October 28 2017, while on bail.
Kelbie also admitted behaving in a threatening or abusive manner at Bonnethill Court on December 18 2017, assaulting nurse Jennifer Cockburn by spitting at her at Ninewells Hospital on the same date, and stealing food from Lidl, in Dura Street, on February 11, while on bail.
Sheriff Alastair Carmichael deferred sentence until March 20.
