In most cases, you must have evidence to convince the judge that the person seeking a restraining order is in danger of harm. The danger or harm can include domestic violence, threats, criminal trespass, stalking, and harassment. An adult can file for a restraining order when they believe their safety is in danger.

The plaintiff has the burden of proving the allegations to be true based on the preponderance of the evidence. The purpose of an Injunction Against Harassment is to restrain a person from committing acts of harassment.
A petition for an injunction against harassment may be filed with any judicial officer – whether a magistrate, a justice of the peace, or a superior court judge – at any court in Arizona.
