Anna Clears Her Name of Intimidation Charges: A Triumph in Waverley Local Court.
O’Brien Criminal & Civil Solicitors have successfully defended Anna against charges of intimidation and property damage. These charges included stalking and intimidating with intent to cause fear, as well as property damage. Anna’s exact charges included:
- Stalk/intimidate with intent to cause fear physical etc
harm – s 13 Crimes (Domestic and Personal
Violence) Act 2007. - Property Damage – s 195(1)(a) of the Crimes Act
1900.
Charges for intimidation, stalking, and property damage.
Our criminal law team found that the intimidation charges stemmed from an incident at a friend’s house. Furthermore, the police had also taken out a provisional apprehended personal violence order (APVO) against her.
Anna pled not guilty to all charges. O’Brien Solicitors took on her case, representing her at a contested hearing in the Local Court of New South Wales. Our legal team worked diligently, issuing subpoenas to investigate the credibility of the alleged victim’s claims. We left no stone unturned in their quest to prove Anna’s innocence.

O’Brien Solicitors opposed the police’s request for an adjournment because the victim did not show at court. We argued that the case should not be delayed further.
The court agreed with us. As a result, the court dismissed the charges due to the lack of evidence. Additionally, the police attempted to impose an AVO despite the alleged victim’s absence. Once again, O’Brien Solicitors successfully opposed this application. In the end, the court dismissed the AVO, clearing Anna’s name completely.
Outcome of case on intimidation charges
In summary, Anna walked away from Waverley Local Court with all charges dismissed. She faced accusations of intimidation and property damage, but thanks to the expert representation from O’Brien Solicitors, she proved her innocence.
