Former Washougal mayoral candidate Derik Ford pleaded not guilty Thursday to additional allegations that he violated the no-contact order in his pending domestic violence case.
A second no-contact order violation allegation against Ford was filed this month after the alleged victim reported receiving more e-mail from Ford about their relationship.
Ford, 45, was arrested Sept. 15 and accused of hitting a family member after an argument. He has pleaded not guilty to fourth-degree assault and is not in custody.
Clark County District Court Commissioner Erin Priest authorized a no-contact order between Ford and the family member.
