From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
For example, she said that the Applicants phoned her at school to harass her. It turns out that there was one phone call in which they asked for her. … The local authority’s designated officer (LADO) made short enquiries with both parties but didn’t pursue it. … (c) Both parties sought to involve the police after the January meeting. … The police tried to speak to the Applicants but they were out on the two occasions they visited the property and the police made no further efforts. The Respondents tried to suggest that this was tantamount to proving that the Applicants had done something wrong and that a non-molestation order was going to be served on them. In actuality, this evidence goes nowhere near establishing anything of the sort. (d) The Respondents accused the Applicants of making numerous “falsifications”. … To suggest that this is somehow evidence of the Applicants lying is fanciful. The Tribunal is satisfied that the parties had different perceptions of a number of matters but there was nothing in them that would affect the outcome of the RRO application. … In fact, this was the judge’s error. The Respondents would have been aware, having all the relevant documents in their possession, that the Applicants have never alleged this. …
