The Illinois Order with Statutory Findings Regarding Stalking No Contact Order is a court-issued protection order for victims of stalking in Illinois. It is designed to prevent further stalking or other unwanted contact from the perpetrator. The order generally prohibits the offender from having any contact with the victim, including in person, by telephone, online, or through third parties. It may also forbid the offender from coming within a certain distance of the victim's home, school, or work. There are two types of Illinois Order with Statutory Findings Regarding Stalking No Contact Order: a temporary order and a permanent order. A temporary order is valid for up to 14 days and is generally issued when a victim is in immediate danger. A permanent order is valid for the duration of the court case and can extend for up to two years. Both types of orders are issued by a judge after consideration of the evidence presented in court and require a finding that the victim has been the target of stalking behavior.
