the respondent did not commit any further domestic violence; and

(c) the respondent did not commit an offence specified in Schedule 2 or 3 to the Sentencing Act 1995 after the order was made; and

(d)

the Court receives a completion notice under section 85D(3)(a).

(2) Despite subsection (1), the Court has discretion to find that a respondent did satisfactorily complete a rehabilitation program if the Court is of the opinion that to find that the respondent did not satisfactorily complete the program would be unjust in the circumstances.

(4) The Court must state its reasons for any finding made under subsection (2).
