Restraining
Orders If a person needs or feels they need to get a restraining order against another person there are a couple of ways to do this: 1) If it is the result of a domestic abuse arrest the Judge will normally issue a no contact order at the time of initial appearance for the suspect that does not allow the suspect to contact the victim in person, through writing, via telephone, via letter or email, or through a 3rd person. 2) If the reason is domestic abuse and no charges are filed the person may contact the Domestic Violence Intervention Program (DVIP). 3) If the restraining order is the result of something other than the above two reasons the person should consult a private attorney to help draw up documents to take to the Judge to get the restraining order. |
