Hi all,
Back in 2012 I broke it off with a girl after two months of dating. I then received abusive messages over Facebook and text from her. She was threatening to kill herself if we didn't get back together and hurt my family and myself. I went to the police and reported this twice and was told there was nothing they could do and I would have to make a private application through court. This went on for two months before she started sitting outside my house and work. After a month, we went to the police again this time with cctv footage of her and again was told the same answer.
In the end after 6 months and multiple trips to the police with my parents I gave up. I went away overseas for a trip with friends and came back to the police arriving at my house and issuing me with a police made domestic violence order. I consulted with a legal aid solicitor and the duty lawyer and both advised me to consent as I would not win against the police. I consented to the order but was not made aware of the implications it would have later on.
How do I get the order removed and the weapons licence ban removed as this is standing in the way of me joining the police and the defence force?
