[1] These are applications brought by LA under the Family Homes and
Domestic Violence (Northern Ireland) Order 1998 for non-molestation orders
against her aunt UJ and her cousin RF. UJ is the mother of RF.
[2] Proceedings were commenced by LA bringing two ex parte
applications under Articles 20 and 23 of the Family Homes and Domestic
Violence (Northern Ireland) Order 1998 for non-molestation orders against UJ
and RF. Leave was granted in the Family Proceedings Court for the
applications to be made ex parte and orders were made against UJ and RF
forbidding each of them from:
(i) using or threatening violence against the
applicant LA and from instructing,
encouraging or in any way suggesting that any
other person should do so;
(ii) intimidating, harassing or pestering the
applicant, LA, and from instructing,
encouraging or in any way suggesting that any
other person should do so.
The Family Proceedings Court afforded UJ and RF an opportunity to make
representations relating to the order at a full hearing. The full hearing has
been transferred to the Family Care Centre and then to the High Court.
