Anti-Social Behaviour Order (ASBO)
Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (ASBOs) are a way of tackling persistent anti-social behaviour, such as graffiti, abusive and intimidating language, excessive noise, fouling the street with litter, drunken behaviour in the streets, dealing drugs.
They are used to protect people whose lives are disrupted by the actions of specific individuals. They can be used for a variety of offences and can ban people from doing things in specific places and sometimes from entering certain areas.
An ASBO is granted in a civil court, but a breach of an order is a criminal offence. For more information go to the link below and follow links for ASBOS.
