FAQ
An antiharassment order is a special type of restraining order which is available only to victims of harassment. It is a civil order of the court telling the person who harassed you not to bother you again. The police are notified of your antiharassment order. The order is fully enforceable in any county in the State.
If you believe the protection order was granted improperly or that it is no longer needed, you can file a motion asking the court to dissolve (terminate or cancel) the protection order. After you file the motion, the court will decide whether or not to schedule a hearing.
It will not appear on your criminal record. However, if an AVO has been made against you, and you knowingly breach one of the conditions in the AVO, this will be a criminal offence.
You cannot drop the charges, but as long as the judge believes that you are not being forced or coerced into dropping the No Contact order, he/she should drop it. Just go to the court that put the order in effect and ask the Clerk's office to pull the case and tell them what it is that you are seeking.
Modifications: After the court has granted either the ex parte temporary protective order or long term protective order, if you want to change part of the order, you can file your request with the court. Only the judge has the power to modify the order.It is not valid unless it is written in a court order.
If you believe someone is harrassing you in Washington State then you can go to disrict or superior court and file a petition under oath stating why you believe the court should issue an antiharassment order.
Ask the court to change the order. The court can drop the "no contact" part of the order but keep the "no abuse" part of the order. Get the 209A protective order "terminated." This will end the order completely.
If a No Contact Order has been put in place anywhere in the state of Washington, the first thing we do is call the court and find the soonest date we can request relief in front of a judge. You will need to be present at that court hearing. Before the court date, we file a motion to modify or rescind (lift) the order.
Washington protective order laws allow for 24-day temporary orders, which may be extended as needed, and orders of protection lasting as long as one year (which also may be extended).
