Crime and Policing BillContribution
Iman applied to vary the restraining order with her new name. When the matter was heard in court, the judge expressed sympathy for the distress caused by the LinkedIn viewing and explained that the viewing of a LinkedIn profile by a restrained party fell within a largely grey area. Iman asked whether she would need a further application to request that the restraining order be varied to prohibit the defendant leaving a visible digital footprint online or on social media, in addition to other digital prohibitions, and was advised that a further hearing would be required.
