Answer (1) to (6) The husband in question is a stalker. Stalkers will use third parties to continue their stalking behaviour even though subject to a restraining order. I table a paper by Pathé and Mullen - and suggest that you read it. I believe you have already been advised that you are being used to continue the stalking behaviour and I draw your attention to page 16. In any event, I would have thought that following the tragic consequences to Mrs Penny Easton after the last time the ALP used parliamentary processes to pursue one side of a dispute arising from Family Court proceedings that you would have learned not to do so. ___________________ 1.
