Our client, who was the subject of a VRO, unwittingly entered the workplace of a person protected by the VRO and was charged with breaching the order. We did not believe our client ought to unnecessarily incur the expense and stress of defending the charge at trial. We negotiated successfully with the prosecution to dismiss the charge, on the basis that it was an inadvertent breach and not in the public interest to prosecute the matter in the circumstances.
