The Nevada Application for Protection Order Against Domestic Violence is a court document that can be used to obtain a restraining order against someone in the state of Nevada who has committed domestic violence. This document is typically filed in the Family Division of the District Court, and it is used when the victim seeks protection from an abuser. It can also be used to protect a child from a parent or guardian who has committed domestic violence. There are three types of Protection Orders available in Nevada: Temporary, Extended, and Permanent. A Temporary Protection Order is effective for a period of time determined by the court and is typically valid for twenty days or less. An Extended Protection Order is effective for three years and can be renewed at the end of its term. A Permanent Protection Order is effective for five years and can be renewed at the end of its term.
