Return to previous page after driver.get

[hkpmatt]

I try to automate a court booking procedure and when I have automated the login action.
I try to navigate the driver to a new site that will help me to go to the booking site.
It can get to the desired URL if there is no more action after driver.get(URL) and yet,
When I add action to click the button after driver.get(URL) the script will return to the login page after driver.get(URL) and the address bar poped up the URL and right back to login page.
