Non molestation order. How?

Christmaspud20 · 02/11/2020 19:44

Without going into too much detail.
DH got a cao as his ex used the dcs as a weapon. He was grated more than he asked for due to her nasty ways to the judge.
Any correspondence is to be via email only. Regarding education and health only.

He recently emailed regarding one of the dcs MH concerns of some things that's been said on how the dc feels at home.
His ex has took and twisted that its about sagging off her parenting which it absolutely isn't. She replies she's scared etc. She's previously made false assault allegations when the cao didn't go her way.
He was found not guilty and the judge said it was done out of spite. Thankfully we had loads of evidence to prove he couldn't have done what she said and wasn't even there when the assault supposedly happened. We were bowling and thankfully there was cvtv
Anyway back to the email, he's expressed concerns. She's twisted it. Threatening solicitors saying she's scared and intimated etc. Saying he's a bully, abusive etc.
Imo is let her get a solicitor as there is absolutely nothing in the emails that's any of the above so the solicitor wouldnt entertain it.
He wants a non molestation order preventing any contact or abusive messages other than the valid reasons of health or education stated in the cao.

How does he go about it. Or is it even possible
Every time she doesn't hear what she wants she gets like this and never know what she could make up.
Fwiw. I draft all the emails and he reads before sending.

As something needs to happen. 8 years of her silly games. False allegations, using the dcs as weapons trying to drive a wedge between him and the dcs. ( her words Her dcs)
He's done everything by the book. Pays well over the cms figure and provides in many other ways. But he can't seem to ever do right by showing a concern for his dcs

Hoping someone here can help.

And to add. Although there's always been issues with how she makes allegations
He has never ever said she's a bad parent, always from day 1 has said how she cares for the dcs well and admires how she works and does majority of the daily grind. So it's really honestly not about how she's taken the emails.

www.ncdv.org.uk/non-molestation-order/

In my experience he would not be suitable given
A) not partners within the last 12 months
B) DV, violence, harassment, stalking, abuse has not happened within the 7 days
C) There have been no previous arrest made against her to evidence domestic abuse
D) He is not in fear for his life and needs police protection of a non-mol

They are used to protect victims who have not pressed charges for offences for whatever their reasons or when there was not enough evidence for an offence but clearly there is domestic abuse taking place.
Considering your partner finds her behaviour distressing and annoying, rather than in fear or harmed. From my knowledge it would not be granted.

Sounds like they both need to grow up and act like adults IMO

Sorry should have said the final aggressive email from her was today.

He doesn't fear for his life but does fear of what she's going to do next. She's had him arrested, taken to court again we had proof was all lies.
It's one thing after another.

I wish I could show on here the emails to get my point across.
The previous allegation she said he'd assaulted her. Had a bruise etc.
Said it was on a Saturday pm. At a certain time. We were bowling, Cctv there as well as cctv him at work prior and a bank statement for a meal after. As well as dash cam.
The judge said it was done maliciously out of spite for a cao he'd obtained and couldn't belive it had gone to court.

Thats what we're up against. So in the meantime. If he expresses a concern of the dcs, not saying she's a bad parent. She can reply abusively and make accusations.
Thats really not fair.

I'm glad me and my ex get on well

It is unfair and its not nice. But it is not the role of the court or police to become involved in preventing your partner from being irritated. He is not at risk from serious harm.

He fears what she may do next in terms of anxiety of her being irritating, unpleasant and insulting but that is entirely different then being fearful for ones safety.

At a stretch she could be committing harassment and could be reported for such.
However I would consider greatly what you would hope to achieve from this.

Again, sounds like both sides need to sit down like adults and stop involving overly stretched police and court systems through childish matters of tattle tales.

Christmaspud20 · 02/11/2020 23:40

Yes. Thank you for putting it in that perspective. Unfortunately back when the false allegations were made he was told my the judge and solicitor to avoid her and being in the same place as her ' for his own sake'
Which is fine as either I collect dcs or inlaws and dh does school run of the mornings after being here.
Hopefully there will be no further issues I hope anyway.

I was granted a non molestation order against my ex, it was done ex parte without notice.. But i had fled domestic violence as a result of being punched in the face and dragged across the hallway by my hair and nearly strangled to death by him.. After I fled, I was then harassed and stalked with up to 200 calls and emails and texts a day.. I blocked him from everything. Changed my numbers and got a nmo granted ex parte.
I think nmo are primarily used to protect victims of domestic abuse in immediate danger or who are fearful for their lives. Your husband and his ex just need to have a conversation as adults. It's a bit of an insult to people who really need non molestation orders.
