personal integrity and was designed to pressure him to cease acting for the individual or advise his client to agree to Dean Manson's demands. The Court went on to find that, even had the first two letters not amounted to harassment, a course of conduct could be established by taking all three letters together. Marinello v City of Edinburgh Council Mr Marinello was employed by the City of Edinburgh Council as a community service assistant. In September 2005, he was signed off work with depression and did not return. In October 2005, Mr Marinello lodged a grievance complaining of a course of conduct occurring in 2004 and 2005 that amounted to bullying and harassment by two of his superiors. Part of his grievance was upheld. In March 2007, Mr Marinello was walking along the street in Edinburgh when a white minibus veered towards him. One of the superiors, against whom he had raised a grievance, was driving. He sounded the horn and gesticulated at Mr Marinello with a clenched fist. The Inner House of the Court of Session held that: an interval of 17 months did not automatically exclude a connection in time between two events; the fact that the March 2007 incident occurred in public and the previous incidents had occurred in the workplace was of little significance, given that Mr Marinello's workplace was frequently a public place; and the fact that Mr Marinello was not at work at the time of the March incident was of less significance
