Inverness man’s breach of court order ‘an error of judgement’
A request to deliver a printer to his former partner landed a 37 year old Inverness man in trouble with the law.
Inverness Sheriff Court heard that Keith Broadfoot, of Kessock Avenue, was the subject of a non-harassment order to protect the woman, imposed for an earlier offence.

Fiscal depute Shay Traynor said Broadfoot turned up at the woman's door in St Valery Avenue, Inverness at 1.30pm on June 30 this year and there was "an altercation”.
He said: “He then left but the woman called him later and he took the call, so this was another contravention of the order."
Defence solicitor John MacColl told Sheriff Sara Matheson: "She asked him to take a printer round. He said he couldn't because of the NHO.”
He acceded to her request though which Mr MacColl said was “an error of judgement."
Broadfoot admitted the breach and was fined £290.
