You must appear at the final PFA hearing because it is the most likely place to get the PFA order dismissed. While you aren't required to have an attorney, your best chance of success will be with a skilled Pennsylvania litigator experienced in defending against PFA orders and criminal domestic violence actions.
Q: How long can a PFA Order last? A: A PFA Order can last up to three years. The length of the PFA is determined by the Judge who presides over the Protection From Abuse action. If there has been a violation of the PFA Order by the defendant, the PFA Order can be extended for an additional three years.
A Protection From Intimidation Order (PFI) is for cases of harassment or stalking where the victim is under 18 and the abuser is over 18. Eligibility: Minors (under 18) who are being harassed or stalked by someone 18 or older. An adult (like a parent or guardian) must file the PFI for the minor.
What Constitutes a Violation of a PFA Order? Any type of assault or domestic violence is a violation. But also threats, stalking, harassment, or placing the plaintiff in reasonable fear of violence can be a violation of a restraining order.
In general, a PFA violation can be anything that goes against the court's PFA order.

Example: Cease and Desist A cease and desist order places an injunction on a company or person prohibiting the activities that are deemed suspect. A cease-and-desist order may take the form of a temporary injunction until a trial can be held to determine the outcome or a permanent injunction after the trial concludes.
TROs: A TRO can be requested if immediate harm or danger is shown. Preliminary Injunctions: These are used in serious cases where the harm to the plaintiff is significant and immediate, and the other party is not greatly affected.
