Help and advise

wizzboy

Hi,  I'm asking this question in behalf of my brother-in-law who lives in Scotland. He lives with his wife and 6 children, 3 of which havebeen diagnosed with autism. Their ages are 17 10 and 8. Of recent,  they aquired new neighbours who constantly complain about the noise. My brother-in-law and his wife do their best and can't keep them quiet 24-7. Their neighbour is always knocking on their door telling them about the noise, which they are aware of and recently he got quite aggresive calling the children "little b@$tards" ! A few days later my brother-in-law received an order for anti social behaviour in the post. He is fuming, but doesn't know what to do next, who to ask.... 

Can anybody please give me some advise on where he stands regarding this. The family have a tough time enough without the pressure's from this guy. 

Thank you in advance

    I found this web page that might help understand what is going on scotland.shelter.org.uk/.../antisocial_behaviour_orders

    Scottish law is different to England's law but it still seems that a court order is needed before the ASBO is issued. I wonder if the letter is an actual order or if it is warning about an order?

    In either case the recipient of the letter should talk to whoever issued the letter to try and work out what can be done to improve the situation. Citizens advice bureau could be consulted as soon as possible.

    If the complainant is a drunk then all incidents and abuse should be recorded systematically as this may be useful if the dispute escalates.
