The applicant brought a motion for a restraining order or, in the alternative, a no contact order against the respondent.
The parties had a fraught history, with the respondent facing pending criminal charges for uttering threats.
The court declined to issue a restraining order, finding it to be a serious tool not appropriate at this stage given the untested allegations and lack of recent violence.
However, the court granted a temporary no contact order under section 28 of the Children's Law Reform Act to maintain stability and address the applicant's subjective fear.
