Starting a No Contact Order in Illinois requires the following steps: Submit a petition online or at the courthouse in the relevant county. Present your case to the judge. The court can grant a permanent Civil No Contact Order, which takes on different level of permanency depending on the context.
The Illinois Domestic Violence Act tells the reader what a court must find to issue an order of protection and then asks the reader to piece together the proofs to allow the court to make that finding. Physical harm or threat of physical harm to the petitioner. Conduct that causes emotional distress to the petitioner.
Go to the Office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court and tell personnel you want to file a protective order. Clerk personnel will give you the required forms which you can fill out by yourself. If you require assistance in filling them out, clerk personnel can direct you to the appropriate resources within the building.
Individuals seek no contact orders by going to their local court in their jurisdiction or the jurisdiction of the defendant. They will need to complete a form that identifies the reason why the no contact order should be issued and the places the person wants protected.
If you think a restraining order has been filed against you in Illinois, the first step to check is to contact the court clerk in the county where you assume the order was filed. From there, the clerk can tell you if there is a restraining order on file and supply you with a copy of the order if one exists.
You should also know that pre-trial no contact orders are very rarely dropped even if the victim does request the order be lifted. The no contact order will remain in effect until the case is resolved at trial or lifted eariler at either your or his request, which I will again point out rarely occurs.
