FAQ
Utah Code Title 77, Chapter 36, known as the Cohabitant Abuse Procedures Act, is particularly relevant. It allows courts to issue protective orders, including no contact orders, to prevent further abuse among individuals who live together or who have a shared domestic relationship.
Instead of answering, the defendant may file one of the motions described in Utah Rule of Civil Procedure 12. If the judge grants the motion, the judge's order will direct the parties what to do next. If the judge denies the motion, the defendant must file an answer within 14 days after the judge's order.
Utah Code 78B-7-603(10). Either party can file a motion to ask the court to extend the civil provisions beyond the 150 days. The court must find good cause to extend the expiration date of the civil provisions.
However, things are a bit different if the victim is the one violating the no-contact order. A no-contact order is usually put in place at the request of the victim. If the victim violates the order, there are no criminal penalties as the victim is not the one legally bound by the order.
After having a court hearing, a judge can grant you a “restraining order after hearing” that can last up to five years. However, if there is no termination date on the order, the order will last three years from the date it was issued.
Steps Check if the court has blank motion forms. Some courts have "check the boxes" or "fill in the blank" motion forms. Create your caption. Title your motion. Draft the introductory paragraph to the body of the motion. Request relief. Lay out the applicable facts. Make your legal argument. Insert a signature block.
The order could potentially last up 150 days, although criminal provisions may last for 3 years. A no-contact order prevents defendants from having any contact with the alleged victim. This includes verbal, written, electronic, and digital communications.
A party can ask to reschedule ("continue") an upcoming hearing or trial by filing a Motion to Continue Hearing or Trial. It is up to the commissioner or judge to decide if the hearing or trial will be rescheduled. If it is not rescheduled the parties should plan to attend the hearing or trial.
If you want to object to and change the ex parte order, you must file an objection and motion within 14 days after you are served with the ex parte order. After you file the objection and motion, the friend of the court is required to attempt to resolve the dispute within 14 days after receiving your objection.
Here are some examples of what ex parte orders can do: Prevent the other party from taking a child out of the country or state. Prevent the other party from destroying property. Prevent the other party from removing assets in a divorce proceeding. Require the other party to stay away and not harass you.
