Sheffield Crown Court heard on December 15 how Haydn Tibble, aged 32, of Lang Avenue, Lundwood, Barnsley, had phoned his ex-partner and stayed with her at her Barnsley home.
Jessica Strange, prosecuting, said Tibble and his ex-partner had been in a relationship for many years but a restraining order had been imposed in March, this year, banning contact with her and any visits.

Tibble also returned two days later, according to Ms Strange, at his ex-partner’s request even though she had previously described the defendant as controlling.
The defendant, who has previous convictions, pleaded guilty to breaching the restraining order.
Lydia Carroll, defending, said Tibble has a new relationship now and he wants to move in with his new partner.

Judge Richardson said the restraining order remains in force and he warned Tibble he must not have any contact with his ex-partner and if she contacts him he advised the defendant to hang up the telephone or walk away.
