[2011] EWCA Crim 1500

In a trial involving allegations of putting a person in fear of violence by harassment contrary to the Protection from Harassment Act 1997 s.4 the judge had failed to direct the jury correctly in respect of the requirement of a need for a course of conduct that amounted to harassment and, as such, the conviction was unsafe.
