Well, if there was a “light bulb moment” resulting in a complete behavioural change, then there should be no real need for OP to have it removed, is there? Why go to all of that trouble and not just let it just expire on its own?...no fear all around!
Unless of course, in telling OP, without knowing all of the facts, to definitely remove it...is based on some unfounded assumption that maybe OP has maliciously obtained the order and/or would call the cops for “nothing”?
I wonder how many times a victim of dv needs to change their mind about a violence order before they are disbelieved? Not sure about in the Magistrates Court or even the police but in the Family Courts, even once, can have some impact on their credibility. It can have a consequence...and we do not know all of the facts.
