There are situations when you can feel threatened by others in the community including a neighbour. There are a number of orders a court can make to help you in this situation, especially when someone has assaulted you or damaged your property or has threatened to do either of these things. The best way to respond to any of these types of conduct will depend on your relationship with the person by whom you feel threatened.
A Peace and Good Behaviour Order is an order of the Magistrates Court, requiring a person to stop any activity that threatens to cause harm to you or your property, or threatens any person under your care or charge. It does not include harassment and verbal abuse (e.g. a person calling you names or harassing you on the phone).
Caxton Community Legal Centre has a self-help factsheet that details when and how to take this action.
