FAQ
Using the facts of the incident only, keep your statement brief and to the point. Briefly describe the most recent incident of abuse and/or threats of abuse or other behaviors. Focus on the actual behavior. Do not include prior incidents, (that will be the next paragraph).
Modifying an order Speak with the clerk of court to complete a petition for a modification of your order - you can see the affidavit that you would file in family court on the NY Courts website.
Family Court Order of Protection The burden of proof required is lower, relying on the “preponderance of the evidence” standard. Your presence and active participation in court are necessary. While records are kept private, the courtrooms themselves are open to the public.
If you want to change or get rid of an order of protection that protects you, we recommend you reach out to a domestic violence advocate to discuss your options. You can file a motion or petition in the court that issued the order of protection asking a Judge to change the terms of the order of protection.
Only the state that issued your protection order can change, extend, or cancel the order. You cannot have this done by a court in NY. To have your order changed, extended, or canceled, you will have to file a motion or petition in the court where the order was issued.
Lack of Jurisdiction The respondent can argue that the court does not have jurisdiction to issue a restraining order. This defense can be raised, for instance, if the alleged incidents of domestic violence or harassment did not occur within the jurisdiction of the court.
In California, violating a restraining order can have serious legal consequences, including fines, imprisonment, or both. Understanding the rules and limitations surrounding contact while a restraining order is in effect is crucial for both the protected person and the individual subject to the order.
A significant change in circumstances, such as improved behavior, completion of anger management or counseling programs, or evidence that the risk of violence has diminished, may provide grounds for seeking the dismissal of a restraining order.
A civil harassment restraining order can be granted against someone who has harassed, stalked, threatened, or harmed another person emotionally or physically. What if I am under 18? If you are 12 or older, you can ask for a restraining order on your own and without your parent's permission.
Prove workplace sexual harassment by documenting each incident with dates, times, locations, and detailed descriptions. Include relevant conversations, witness testimonies, and physical evidence like emails or voicemails. Report the harassment to your employer promptly and state that the behavior is unwelcome.
