Requirements for a protective order for domestic violence to be issued include establishing that family violence has occurred and is likely to occur again without such an order. The burden of proof for this involves what's known as a “preponderance of evidence” favoring the accuser.
Domestic Violence Restraining Order (DVRO) A Domestic Violence Restraining Order is one of the most common types of restraining orders.
To cover those situations in which notice cannot be reasonably given, Rule 65 provides for temporary restraining orders (or TROs), A temporary restraining order is like a preliminary injunction but, if it is issued without notice to the adverse party, its duration is limited to ten days.

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.
No temporary injunction shall be issued without notice to the adverse party. No writ of injunction shall be granted unless the applicant therefor shall present his petition to the judge verified by his affidavit and containing a plain and intelligible statement of the grounds for such relief.
An injunction or temporary restraining order is an order from the court prohibiting a party from performing or ordering a specified act, either temporarily or permanently.
A temporary restraining order serves to provide emergency relief and to preserve the status quo until a hearing may be had on a temporary injunction. The purpose of a temporary injunction is to preserve the status quo pending a full trial on the merits.
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.
