Years of violent quarrels among neighbors can, according to a court order, lead to a temporary ban on mutual approach and contact.

This is the case with two neighbors who shared a single narrow courtyard entrance and had repeatedly attacked each other over the past ten years, not just for self-defense, said the Palatinate Higher Regional Court in Zweibrücken on Wednesday (case no.

Zweibrücken - 6 UF 16/21).

Therefore, there were several so-called violence protection proceedings before the district court of Grünstadt in the Bad Dürkheim district.

The exact course of the scuffles can no longer be precisely clarified due to different information from both neighbors.

According to the OLG, their complaints against the prohibitions on proximity and contact issued by the local court were unsuccessful.

A future legal complaint to the Federal Court of Justice (BGH) did not allow it.
