Temporary Restraining Order (TRO)
Temporary Restraining Order. (CLETS-TRO) (Domestic Violence Prevention) DV-110.
Protection orders are generally in place when there is no pending criminal case. However, in many cases, a person will seek a protection order prior to a situation where law enforcement gets involved. Then, later, when a criminal act occurs a no contact order is then requested by the prosecutor.
Courts impose restraining orders, and court records are generally public, barring a few exceptions. This means that everything heard in a court that is “on the record” could be searched for by the public. A hearing on a restraining order and the ruling of the court are likely parts of public record.
Restraining orders can be very broad and may restrict all kinds of behaviors. From contacting the other party to any other behavior that might affect the case, a restraining order can be applied. Protective orders apply mostly to violent or threatening behavior and seek to protect petitioners from future harm.
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.
About protective orders The person the order is requested against is called the respondent. If the court finds the respondent threatened or tried to harm the petitioner, the order can: prevent the respondent from contacting or communicating with people. stop the respondent from threatening violence.
Key Differences A Harassment Order addresses unwanted behavior that may not necessarily involve physical harm but still causes significant distress to the victim. In contrast, a Restraining Order is typically sought in cases involving a history of violence, physical threat, or other forms of serious harm.
