James Gregory Burzacott, 33, was sentenced in the Bendigo Magistrates' Court on Monday after he pleaded guilty last month to charges including criminal damage and handling stolen goods.

The charges stemmed from a series of offences between March and April this year.

The court heard shortly after midnight on March 19, police found Burzacott's silver Ford Territory parked outside the Bendigo RSL.

Officers saw Burzacott leave the RSL, enter his car, and drive off down Holmes Road.

The police activated their lights and sirens but Burzacott turned off at a roundabout and accelerated away.

The officers pulled out of the chase due to safety concerns. Burzacott was disqualified from driving at the time of the offending.

About 4am on March 21, police arrested Burzacott after he was found acting drug-affected near a Bendigo property.

Police searched the car he was found in and located a taser, 10ml of GHB in a hand sanitiser bottle, and 5ml of GHB in a Mentos container.

He was arrested and taken to the Bendigo Police Station, but he was not interviewed due to his drug-affected state.

Burzacott was bailed on March 29 to an address in Golden Square. The home owner informed police that Burzacott was not living there, in contravention of his bail.

About 6.30am on April 16, Burzacott went to a Long Gully property and used a baseball bat to smash the windscreen of a silver Mitsubishi. The court heard the victim was known to the 33-year-old.

Burzacott was arrested at a Strathdale property on April 30 after trying to hide from officers.

Police searched a Holden Commodore parked at the address and found outstanding stolen registration plates and a driver's licence under a different name.

Defence lawyer Karen Chilbert last month told the court while Burzacott had a "significant" number of prior convictions, his offending was linked to his drug addiction.

Ms Chilbert on Monday confirmed Burzacott had been accepted into Wulgunggo Ngalu Learning Place, a culturally appropriate residential facility for Indigenous men undertaking community correction orders.

Magistrate Sharon McRae said the program would be a "real opportunity" for Burzacott.

"No one will keep you in that place but I'm asking you to stay there as long as you need to be," Ms McRae said.

"You're still a young man. You can turn this around if you choose to do so."

Ms McRae convicted and sentenced Burzacott to 67 days in jail, which were reckoned as already served, and a 12-month community corrections order.

He was released from custody to attend the Wulgunggo Ngalu Learning Place as part of the corrections order.

Burzacott's licence was also cancelled and he was disqualified from driving for 12 months.
