FAQ
Your affidavit should say when and how the defendant abused you and why you are afraid of the defendant. Start with the most recent incident that is making you afraid. Often, the first question that a judge will ask you is what happened that day that made you come into court to ask for a restraining order.
This order is designed to protect a child from abuse or neglect for a longer period of time than the ex parte order. A protective order can be issued after a hearing in front of a judge in which both parties have the opportunity to tell their sides of the story.
The victim will state the facts that explain what happened and why he or she is in immediate need of protection. Temporary Orders are usually issued, prohibiting the other party from contacting the victim, and a hearing for a longer-term Order of Protection will be set for 15 days after the issuance.
An order of protection is issued by the court to limit the behavior of someone who harms or threatens to harm another person. It is used to address various types of safety issues, including, but not limited to situations involving domestic violence.
Evidence from the person seeking the order can take different forms: Witness Testimony: Statements from people who witnessed abusive behavior. Photographic Evidence: Photos of injuries caused by violence, with timestamps. Text Messages or Emails: Messages with threatening language or detailing abuse.
At the hearing, you must prove that the abuser has committed an act(s) of domestic violence (as defined by the law). You must also convince a judge that you need the protection and the specific things you asked for in the petition.
If you are the custodial parent, guardian, or legal custodian of the minor against whom you are trying to file, you cannot file a petition for civil protection against the minor.
A neutral party will have to handle the task of handing off the child and conveying information each parent is entitled to know or have a say in decision-making. The parents will need to inform the court of the dilemma since restraining orders typically include no-contact provisions.
