As long as a protective order hasn't expired, you can ask the court to modify or change it. That includes asking to rescind or extend it. Complete a Petition to Modify/Rescind/Extend (form CC-DC-DV-006). The clerk will notify the Respondent and schedule a hearing within 30 days.
Step 4: Appear for a final hearing Instead of a trial, the respondent may consent to the entry of a final order. A Final Protective Order may be granted for as long as one (1) year. The court for good cause may extend the term of the Final Protective Order for an additional six (6) months after a further hearing.
