A Bronx Family Court judge last week took the unusual step of imposing a five-year order of protection against a man who chased the mother of his children in a car at high speed, following an appeals panel’s finding that the car was “dangerous instrument.”
Civil Court Judge John Kelley’s June 18 decision came after a remand from the Appellate Division, First Department, which had found that another judge, who imposed a two-year order of protection, had wrongly concluded that there were no aggravating circumstances.
