Non-Molestation Orders (NMO) are a type of civil injunction which can be obtained from a UK court, typically the Family Court, to protect a person from harassment and violence. The purpose of an NMO is to prohibit an individual from assaulting, molesting, harassing, threatening, pestering, or interfering with any other person, including the applicant. In the context of housing, NMOs are used to protect tenants and homeowners from unwanted contact or interference from a partner, family member, or other person. NMOs can also be used to stop intimidating behavior, such as stalking or verbally abusing a tenant or homeowner. The scope of an NMO can vary depending on the circumstances, but typically includes a prohibition on contacting or communicating with the applicant, entering the applicant’s home or workplace, or engaging in any other conduct that is likely to cause the applicant fear, alarm, or distress.
