Can the Court disclose my address?

Feeling slightly panicked at the moment. If you've read my other threads.. DD and I fled horrific domestic abuse earlier this year and were relocated by SS.. My ex is so determined to find out where we live. Is it possible for the courts to order my address is disclosed? I'm so scared. If he finds out where we are I have to move again as I can't live like that. He will categorically turn up. I know he will.

Yes they can . They did with me .
However each case is different and it wouldn’t be done automatically and you would be allowed to put your reasons forward as to why it should not be disclosed

@Fidgety31 oh god that's awful. We had to flee domestic violence and my ex has convictions for stalking and harassment.. He would categorically move to the area I live in just to make my life a misery. I can't have him knowing where we live. It would destroy everything.
Why did they disclose your address?

Would it not be better to direct all these questions to your solicitor / IDVA / Women's Aid rather than trusting random strangers to give accurate, safe and reliable advice / information?

You would be better posting in legal matters. My understanding is they can but that doesn't mean they will. I can't see how they would consider it necessary for him to know your address give the circumstances. Don't panic.

@user182639104 I did ask my solicitor and she simply said we'd cross that bridge when we get to it and that we would put our reasoning across as to why it needs to stay undisclosed.
