The Wyoming Petition for Stalking Order of Protection is a legal document used to protect individuals from stalking, harassment, and other unwanted contact. This petition can be filed in any Wyoming court, and it requires the petitioner to provide information about the stalking behavior, such as the frequency, duration, and type of contact, as well as the identity of the stalker. The petitioner must also provide evidence to support the claim that the stalking is ongoing and that it is causing the petitioner to fear for their safety or suffer emotional distress. The Wyoming Petition for Stalking Order of Protection has two different types: a Temporary Order of Protection and a Permanent Order of Protection. The Temporary Order of Protection is a short-term court order which is issued to provide immediate protection to the petitioner, usually for a period of up to 90 days. This type of order may include provisions such as restraining the stalker from contacting or coming near the petitioner, or prohibiting the stalker from possessing a firearm. The Permanent Order of Protection is a more long-term court order which is issued after a hearing is held in which the petitioner presents evidence that the stalking is ongoing and is causing the petitioner to fear for their safety or suffer emotional distress. This type of order may include provisions such as restraining the stalker from contacting or coming near the petitioner, or prohibiting the stalker from possessing a firearm. It may also include provisions such as requiring the stalker to complete a counseling program, or to pay costs associated with the petition.
