Afternoon all just update received my non molestation order around 11am served to me...remote court hearing is on 8th March..just looking for any last advice and help it getting things organised many thanks
Sorry to hear that. There are some good advice guides for representing yourself in court at www.advicenow.org Write some notes about what you want to say and keep calm. Even if an order is made it does not mean that you are unable to see the children. The order can be worded that there is no contact except for the purpose of making arrangements for child contact. You might ask for this. You might also suggest undertakings if it looks like not going your way. That means that if you do breach the order - or she claims you have, you won't be arrested.
@champagne oh trust me won’t breach it even better that she lives over 70 miles from me now..at the non mol hearing your saying ask for contact?? Thought was only regarding me accepting or wanting the nmo discharged thanks for your advice
I was thinking that if you get an order that says you mustn't contact her then its not going to be possible to arrange child contact. If she's stopping you seeing the children then when your C100 hearing happens and hopefully you are allowed to see the children, the non mol will need amending. The usual phrase is no contact, direct or indirect save for the purpose of arranging child contact. It may be that you have to arrange contact through another family member. Its a point to bear in mind when the order is drafted.
@champagne ah thank you so state that in Monday’s hearing it’s only 30 min hearing so guess it’s matter if me getting my main points across from her go
@champagne states in the order no contact to done by 3party member again just another way of trying to stop contact woman is ruthless but no grounds behind her evidence and few things she said I had done I was at working which I have evidence I was..she’s basically rammed 3/4 things into one day the day before she left..when only 1 of the so called incidents occurred not the 3 others.
There is a good explanation of a non mol hearing at Direct2barrister.co.uk
Hope it goes well
