AN ORDER banning a Musselburgh man from shouting and swearing at his home address has been granted by Edinburgh Sheriff Court.

Kevin Yipp, 39, of Newbigging, is now subject to a full anti-social behaviour order for a period of two years following an application by East Lothian Council.

The court was presented with details of the alleged anti-social behaviour of Mr Yipp, including shouting, swearing and banging doors at a property on the street.

The terms of the ASBO prohibit Mr Yipp from behaving in an anti-social manner, including shouting, swearing and continually kicking the main stair door housing his property. He is also banned from having more than two visitors within his property at any one time except those there in the course of their employment.

Mr Yipp had received an interim ASBO earlier this year.

A council spokesperson said: “East Lothian Council will progress cases to the full ASBO stage where there is evidence that an individual continues to behave antisocially despite all previous interventions.”
