Gibbon was handed a restraining order pleading guilty of harassing Mrs Morrison and her family, the day the killing took place, the Old Bailey trial heard.
The dispute started in 2011 when Mrs Morrison, her husband Cedric and their teenage son moved to Windsor Crescent, Harrow, north-west London, next door to Gibbon and his partner.
