The applicant has the burden of proving by a preponderance of the evidence that they qualify and need a protective order and the respondent (the person whom you are seeking protection against) has the opportunity to be heard as to why the restraining order shouldn't enter.
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.
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. The plaintiff will be directed to go to the clerks counter to wait for the order.
California law defines abuse as any act that puts you, your children, or another person in immediate fear of injury, as well as any act that causes harm to you or your property. If such harm exists, you can file a request for an order to keep the abuser away.
If you are granted an emergency PFA, your order will expire the next business day. If you want continuing protection, you must go to the courthouse the next business day. A final hearing will be scheduled within ten (10) business days after the Petition is filed and any Temporary Order is issued.

A Protection From Intimidation Order (PFI) is for cases of harassment or stalking where the victim is under 18 and the abuser is over 18. Eligibility: Minors (under 18) who are being harassed or stalked by someone 18 or older. An adult (like a parent or guardian) must file the PFI for the minor.
The specific elements you need to prove to get a restraining order vary from state to state, but in general, you need to show: A specific instance or instances of abuse or harassment (such as sexual assault by an intimate partner) The threat of violence or of further abusive behavior or harassment.
State to the court that you would like a restraining order and what you would like the court to order. Be as specific as possible. Examples: “I am asking the court to grant me a _____ month/year injunction.” “I want no contact in person, at home, by phone, at work, by mail or through third parties.”
