In 1841 the Norfolk and Norwich Monitor reported that Robert Scotter was a Hair Sorter living at St. Martins Palace Plain. He appeared in court for the purposes of settlement of a domestic argument with his second wife Mary Ann Scotter, over finances. At the trail Mr Scotter was accused of frequent violent assault and of marrying for money. Mr Scotter denied the accusations and vowed that he would never live with her again, and would defy any man to live with her and treat her well.
Mr. Scotter was ordered to keep the peace towards his wife for 3 months in his own recognizances of £20.
