My ex girlfriend took out a non-molestation order on me a few years ago and she has broken her own order by getting in touch with me as my son has been asking about me and he wants to see me so I went to see her can I get in to trouble even though she has broken it thank you
if she is genuine about this, maybe you can speak to her about it. am no expert but it may be possible for her to drop NMO if she writes to the court.
Hi there
NMOs usually have a time limit, it can be as little as a few months or a couple of years. As the one against you was made a few years ago, it’s very possible that it’s no longer in force.
If you have a copy of the order, it should say on there how long it is in effect for. If you don’t have it any longer, you could try getting in touch with the court that made the order and ask if they can give you the information. Failing that, if you had a solicitor, they may also have kept a record of it.
Of course, in the unlikely event it’s still in force, you could be in breach and could still get a problem, although you can prove that she made the first move, so it might not get as far as court.
Best of luck
