here is my source 

public class ConnectionChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver
{
    Context c;
    public ConnectionChangeReceiver(Context c){
        checkIsNotationActive();
        this.c = c;
    }

  @Override
  public void onReceive( Context context, Intent intent )
  {

    ConnectivityManager connectivityManager = (ConnectivityManager) context.getSystemService( Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE );
    NetworkInfo activeNetInfo = connectivityManager.getActiveNetworkInfo();
    NetworkInfo mobNetInfo = connectivityManager.getNetworkInfo(     ConnectivityManager.TYPE_MOBILE );
    if ( activeNetInfo != null && checkIsNotationActive() == true)
    {

        ((NotationActivity)(context)).finish();

    }else if( activeNetInfo == null){

        Intent i = new Intent("net.evolution.betting.application.NOTATIONACTIVITY");
        i.putExtra("DialogTitle", "Warining!");
        i.putExtra("DialogBody", "It seems like your app is not connected to Internet witch is required.Please check your network connection.");
        i.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);


        context.startActivity(i);

    }


  }

  private boolean checkIsNotationActive(){


          ActivityManager activityManager = (ActivityManager)c.getSystemService (Context.ACTIVITY_SERVICE); 
              List<RunningTaskInfo> activitys = activityManager.getRunningTasks(Integer.MAX_VALUE); 
              boolean isActivityFound = false; 
              for (int i = 0; i < activitys.size(); i++) { 
                  if (activitys.get(i).topActivity.toString().equalsIgnoreCase("ComponentInfo{net.evolution.betting.application/net.evolution.betting.application.NotationActivity}")) {
                      isActivityFound = true;
                  }
              } 
              return isActivityFound; 

  }
}

Change your code as because your c Context instance is null move your code inside onReceive and use context for accessing System Service :

public class ConnectionChangeReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver
{
    Context c;

  @Override
  public void onReceive( Context context, Intent intent )
  {
     this.c = context;  //<<<<<<<  

     // your code here
  }

}

Sorry I cant find where the problem is, but maybe, you can try the following method: As you are using a broadcast receiver, why not try to send a broadcast(A) in the "onCreate()" of "NotationActivity" and another broadcast(B) in the "onDesdroy()". Then, you can check if the activity is running by checking a variable, maybe an integer initialized to 0, changed to 1 when A received, and 2 when B received.
