Man banned from wearing skirt breached Asbo - Yet another update

A man banned from wearing skirts or showing bare legs on school days has been found guilty of breaching an Asbo.

Peter Trigger, 60, from Farndon Close, Northampton, was given an anti-social behaviour order in December 2008. He is forbidden from behaving in a manner which causes or is likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress.



Northampton Magistrates' Court found him guilty of harassing his neighbours but declined to activate a suspended prison sentence he also faced.

Trigger had been banned from wearing a skirt or showing bare legs on a school day between 0830 and 1000 and 1445 and 1600 GMT or BST, the court was told.



Magistrates found him guilty of breaching the Asbo by deliberately bending over in front of his neighbours early in the morning on 16 December last year, causing them harassment, alarm and distress.

Although Trigger was permitted to wear a skirt at that time of day, he had breached the second part of his Asbo by causing harassment, alarm and distress.
