  • harassment injunction

    Hello,

    I'm looking to send in a harassment injunction as I have had a stalker for a while. Broad description: death threats, following me around physically, third party contact, steals the post, other stuff.

    I notice there are two rubrics on the N16a form. it's not clear what the difference is, i.e. what does a legally trained person put in the "Defendant must" and the "Defendant must be forbidden" categories. What are items I should not list so that the court doesn't have the easiest time thrashing it out, i.e. what are standard items to be listed here.

    For instance I don't want to be contacted by any means, I imagine I can put that in the "Defendant must be forbidden" category.

    Additional issues: I don't know for sure who is doing this to me. Can I mention this in the "Defendant's name and ref" and the "this application is served upon" categories, i.e. can I put down that I want all criminal behavior done against me that follows a specific pattern to be covered by the injunction? The person that I think is doing it may not be the person that is doing it.

    Additional issue: if there's a likelihood that the person that is doing this to me is the same person that already has a stalking protection order against me, do I automatically breach the SPO by filing for an injunction?

    Hi AKSJN1292

    Welcome to LB

    'I don't know for sure who is doing this to me.'

    The best thing to do is seek a specialist in this area, see if they can provide some free initial advice.

    Have you reported the matter to the police?

      What you are trying to doesn't seem to me to be the right approach. Form N16a is a general civil court Injuction application but surely you need a Stalking Protection Order from a Magistrates court? You know about these because you say someone already has one in place against you

      But in any case you can't apply for such orders unless you know who is doing the stalking. If you don't know who it is, if you don't have any actual evidence, the person you name who you think may be responsible can simply say "not me".

      Have you sought advice from these charities? Have you reported it to the police?

      The fact that you are seeking a court order against someone who also has a court order against you suggests a level of legal complexity that you need to consult a solicitor about, one specialising in stalking and harassment
