[Solved] Help - Accidentally broke non molestation order

This is what I’m struggling with.

‘The way a court would look at them’

I’m human. Judges are human. Police are human. We all make mistakes. I did everything I could to rectify it immediately. Surely - there has to be some common sense on this stuff?

I’d understand it if I had addressed it to her, or it was directly written to her , but it wasn’t and I informed the police myself of the error! This seems ridiculous. I agreed to this order in the basis I didn’t want to cause any more stress and upset as it was - it was very economical with the truth as it was! Beginning to regret accepting it now !?

Don't make the mistake of thinking anyone will say "oh well - I'll let you off this time...."

It doesn't happen. The law is black and white and is administered as such. Be that good or bad.

In which case - in the order it says ‘without reasonable excuse’ .... so surely there just be circumstances that applies to?

How is it reasonable to send an email to your ex mistakenly? Think about the process of sending an email.

Click the recipient box, choose the recipient, hit send.

You had a few chances to check the details in that process.

I'm not disputing what you say about it being an accident I am merely trying to show how the other side will argue and probably win the case.

A non-mol means no contact. You initiated contact - twice.

I was typing on my laptop - must’ve type the first three letters of her name and didn’t twig it was in the to box . I realised as I hit send by which point it was too late.

That to me is reasonable. The fact I apologised and then contacted the police myself makes that reasonable.

What a load of [censored].
