(KLZA)--A pretrial conference is scheduled for April 3rd in Richardson County District Court for a Humboldt woman facing a pair of felony charges in an embezzlement case.

47-year-old Vicki Manning entered a not guilty plea recently to charges of theft by unlawful taking or disposition and a charge of tampering with physical evidence.  

According to court documents, Manning is charged in connection with an embezzlement scheme during her employment at Humboldt Implement.  

She is accused of taking more than $5,000 between December 2014 and May 5th, 2017.

While the charges cover only that time period, it is alleged the  embezzlement had gone on for several years prior to December, 2014 and included more than $77-thousand.

The tampering charge alleges Manning attempted to destroy evidence.
