The Family Court extended protective orders for a nearly 17-year-old child, maintained indirect contact only with the father, and imposed a section 91(14) restraint.
M v F & Anor [2026] EWFC 106 (B) (13 May 2026)
The Family Court extended protective orders for a nearly 17-year-old child, continued indirect-only contact with the father, and made a section 91(14) order.
On the balance of probabilities, the father either personally carried out or instructed others to carry out the criminal damage incidents targeting the mother's family property, motivated by frustration over contact progression. Identification evidence based on gait and mannerisms is insufficient alone, but cumulative circumstantial evidence, father's evasiveness, prior breaches, and lack of credible alternative explanations support the finding.
