An order of protection can order someone not to injure, threaten or harass you, your family, or any other people listed in the order. For example, it can order someone to: have no contact with you, your family, household members, or your children, regardless of their age (see: Melanie's Law) move out of your home.
A temporary restraining order may be issued with or without notice, based on a declaration that, to the satisfaction of the court, shows reasonable proof of harassment of the petitioner by the respondent, and that great or irreparable harm would result to the petitioner.
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.”
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.

Go to the courthouse in your county or the county where the abuser lives. Find the office of the Clerk of Court. Tell them that you are there to file a petition for a temporary and permanent protection order.
No Contact Orders are issued by a judge through criminal cases. For instance, when there is a crime that involves an alleged victim of violence, such as Domestic Battery, Battery, Harassment, and Stalking, then the Judge will likely order that the Defendant have No Contact with the Alleged Victim.
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.
Your letter should contain essential elements such as your contact information, the date, the name of the person or department you're addressing, the case number, a formal request for the dismissal of charges, and your reasons for the request.
I beg your honor to please consider my sincere plea to remove the no contact order. You are the one who has the ability to give us, as a family, a second opportunity.
