intervention order against me which states i am unable to go to my house
my daughter who moved back in temporary caused trouble and now has me on an assault charge and i have an intervention order against me which states i am unable to go to my house. She is moving out in a weeks time and my court date is 17th nov. will i be able to move back in to my home once she has left?
Sassy, when you go to court you will be known as the Respondent.
Respondents to an intervention order have four options. You can:
1. agree to an intervention order being made
2. agree to an undertaking instead of an order
3. argue against the order
4. ignore the summons and not go to court.
Option 4 is not a good idea as the court can make orders in your absence.
When you go to court, explain to the Magistrate that you either own the house or are renting it, whatever the case may be. Advise the Magistrate that your daughter no longer resides there and ask that any order that be made or undertaking that is given not include a condition that you cannot return to your own home.
