Restraining Order

A restraining order is issued by a court to protect a person from physical abuse, threats, or harassment by another specific person. A restraining order is obtained after the court determines that the applicant has a reasonable belief that he or she is in imminent danger, or may be in danger due to the actions of another. In some jurisdictions, restraining orders are referred to as “protective orders,” and the person to whom it is issued is referred to as the “protected person.” The court order specifies the rules of the protective order, and clearly states that a violation may result in arrest.
