A woman questioned her partner before stabbing him in the leg, a court heard.
Lisa Parker, 36, from Warrington, was involved in a "dysfunctional" relationship with ex-partner Barry Dodd. During the early hours of June 13 last year, Parker decided to meet up with Mr Dodd as she believed he was with another woman.
The former couple agreed to meet in Bank Park in Warrington town centre. While Mr Dodd had a restraining order which should have prevented him from contacting Parker, Liverpool Crown Court heard that they both had a "casual approach" to it.
