FRANKLIN COUNTY MUNICIPAL COURT CLERK. CIVIL DIVISION - 3RD FLOOR. 375 SOUTH HIGH STREET. COLUMBUS, OHIO 43215. THE EVICTION FILING PROCESS.
If the judge decides that there was abuse and that there is also a credible threat to the plaintiff's safety, a final order of protection will be granted and will last for up to one year.
Contact the court: Reach out to the local courthouse in your area and inquire about any protection orders filed against you. Provide them with your personal information, such as your name and address, to check if there are any records.
After the hearing, a judge can issue a protective order that lasts up to 18 months, and can later be renewed after a hearing in front of a judge. The parts of the protective order that tell the abuser to not abuse, harass, or interfere with you can last forever.
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.
Stick to the facts, and provide concrete reasons why the order should be modified or terminated. For example, if you and the other party have a child together, you could state that you need the no-contact order dropped so you can communicate regarding the child's needs and arrange for visitation.
The burden of proof is on the protected party to prove to the court by a preponderance of the evidence that there is a reasonable apprehension of future abuse.
