judgment
the bailiff:
1. We are satisfied beyond reasonable doubt that there has been a breach of the injunctions imposed by the Court when Mr. Cooper went on two occasions, which have been specified in the ninth Representation, to the premises of the Plaintiff in the middle of the night, contrary to the order of the Court.
2. Mr. Cooper, this was a serious contempt of the Court's order and you must understand that the Court will not tolerate this behaviour. We are going to send you to prison, but we are going to ask the Court welfare officer to see what can be done to advise you while you are in prison and to help you with the different grievances which you have explained in to the Court this morning. In the meantime, we are going to punish you for your disobedience of the Court order and you are sentenced to three months' imprisonment. We re-impose the power of arrest for six months with effect from today.
