If you would like to request an Order of Protection, or an Injunction Against Harassment you may initiate your petition online by visiting the AZPOINT page, but you must appear in court to finish the process. You may also go to any court, including this court, to fill out and file a petition.
You may know them as restraining orders if you come from other states, but in Arizona they are called Orders of Protection and Injunctions Against Harassment. They are orders from a Court prohibiting a person from having contact with another person, protected minors, being in certain places, and possessing firearms.
An Injunction Against Harassment will last for one year from the date it was served.
Go to court You will tell the judge why you need a restraining order. You can bring witnesses and evidence to support your case. The other side can bring witnesses and evidence, too.
The petitioner must show that the respondent has committed or may commit an act of domestic violence, which includes but is not limited to: Physical assault or harm. Threats or intimidation. Harassment or stalking. Sexual assault or abuse. Kidnapping or unlawful imprisonment. Criminal damage or trespassing.
Restraining orders, known in Arizona as orders of protection or injunctions against harassment, are court-issued directives designed to protect individuals from abuse, harassment, or threats. While these orders are civil, not criminal, they will go on public record in Arizona.
Once you turn in your request, a judge will decide quickly whether to grant temporary protection. The whole process can take a few weeks to months, depending on how complicated your case is. If the judge grants you a long-term restraining order, it can last up to five years.
How long is an Order of Protection in effect? Once an order has been served, it will be valid and enforceable for 2 years from the date it was served. If it is not served, it will expire 1 year from the date the judge issued it.
