The applicant, Valentina Ortega Alvarez, brought an urgent motion without notice seeking a no-contact order and related relief against the respondent, William H. Duong, due to concerns for the safety of herself and their children following an escalation in the respondent's abusive and volatile behaviour.
The court granted a temporary no-contact order under section 28 of the Children's Law Reform Act, finding immediate danger to the children but declined to issue a restraining order, holding that less restrictive measures were appropriate at this stage.
