    That I would believe but i doubt matters of construction are regularly raised in the DC nor would I expect a decision about whether adjusting the angle on a non functioning piece of plastic to be easily determined should actual resources be brought to bear. If its function is to act as a deterrent, is such function disturbed if the angle is adjusted in such a manner as not to render it a non deterrent. Is function relevant in determining whether there is interference. I doubt any of these points could easily be looked up in a rule book. They might however stimulate eager legal minds.

    Like that of a jaded District Judge with a headache and a huge list to get through.

    The eager legal minds would belong to thos students for whom I suggested this as a question topic; not a jaded judge sitting on a petty session. What need have they to interpret the law?

    Hard to see that an isolated trespass by the neighbour on an occasion when the OP was not present could meet NF offences act harassment. The OP's installation of the camera might have raised ire but he was not repeatedly watching the neighbour.
    The dummy camera could be interpreted as antagonising and intimidating the neighbour.

    That would not seem to amount to section10 harassment.
