Violating a restraining order is a crime either way. If there is violence involved then you broke two laws. Viol. restraining order AND assaut and battery.

Yes.  It depends on the charge and your location.  Go to a search engine and type in the name of your state, then 'state judiciary home page' and hit 'search'.  It should pull up the home page with the laws for your state.  You can look at the laws regarding abuse, sentencing, etc.  If someone is being abused, you need to talk to them and help them find the strength to leave themselves.  Otherwise they'll just go back because that's what they know, that's what's safe.  I've been there.  Be there for them.  Talk to them.  There are also restraining orders, which can be taken out at your local court house.  They're very cheap and affordable.  The police are also more than happy to put a trespassing warrant on your property for you, so if somebody walks onto your lawn, you can simply phone and have them removed without dirtying your hands.  Good luck.

Yes a restraining order states that there is to be no contact, weather it be by phone, in person or sending anything. You can also have a lawyer send him a cease and dissist letter.

I just dealt with a case like this where an individual was told not to call on go near another person, they filled an order of protection and he ws not present.  He didn't even know it existed.  It was his own mother and step dad.  They lured him to the apartment complex by telling his aunt that his property was on the stoop.  He picked it up.  The next day he was just walking down the street and was picked up by police based on a description and arrested for violation a restraining order, fined and arrested.  I got him released ROR argueing the same points as some of your answers listed above but the short of it is he is going to county lock up if he doesn't beat the charge.  lawyers fees are expensive.  he can now only afford a public defender and they are way over worked, under paid and not to bright, I would expect probation or 30 days incarceration at county lock up and if you are not careful you will receive the same.  After the hearing the constable or someone will make one attempt to serve you and that is it.  You need to obey the order or face arrest.  Unless you have unlimited money for attorneys fee you shouldn't fight it.  Or you might be using the public pretenders office.  Work this out through a third party and be apologetic and humble.  Get this order dropped or you will run into this person and do some time.  This case was in Upstate NY but the laws are very common throughout the US and some places might add stalking.  Big jail time!  watch your step, the law is on the filers side, file a counter order asap.

No.  A legal restraining order MUST be served on the individual named.  It also must be served by a Sheriff or Constable who can then make proper return to the issuing court.....

A restraining order is a step in the right direction. A restraining order sets precident that there is a need for protection. The victim of a restraining order needs to show proof, what would be better would be what is called an "Order For Protection", or an OFP. \n\nAn OFP is easier for a woman to get in any state, as it is pertaining to fear from a spouse, or someone who is partnered with an indivdual.\n\nAn OFP will allow the partner who is in fear the opportunity to live life without fear, with an OFP if your girlfriend is at a club or an ice cream shop, she can call if she see's the Boy Friend there, and he would have to leave. \n\nIf he does not leave, he would go to jail.

Not unless your local police department does not charge.\nAny and everyone that I know of requires a fee.

I am so sorry.\nI am sure that you can get a restraining order if she has threatened you.\nI had a mother from hell, but never thought about a restraining order, I would have loved to have seen her butt in jail.\nGood luck and may GOD bless you in many ways to make up for your mother.

Same way you sue any company or person go to the justice of the peace department and file a small claims against it. It helps if you got an adress and owner or agent name but you can find it out at that office, telephone number or fax will help to. It usually costs about 65 dollars or atleast thats what i payed which is reimbursed when money is colleted from the company, but prices on it I think have gone up but I'm in texas don't know where your at. anywho hope this helped.

Check with the Texas Bar Association.  They should have a toll free number listed.

Restraining orders are almost always exclusive to personal relationships. If you had a stalker or a history of problems with an individual that was documented, it may constitute as a relatonship and then be considered for a restraining order.  it is a bit twisted but, there are anti stalker laws and stay-away orders to prevent people from evading your personal well being.  You can't just get an order if something is aggrivating you because they exist.  You have to be personally in danger or I doubt a judge will grant any of the orders. We are very particular about limiting peoples freedom in this country....First Amendment...free speech all that stuff we enjoy so freely in this wonderful nation.  People could start a protest in front of your home and in order to stop it you would have to convince a judge that your being hurt by it or they could camp out peacefully and picket all day long forever.

Coudln't find anything about cicil restraining order but I guess it might follow: \n\n(a) An order to vacate or stay away from the home of the victim and to stay away from any other location where the victim is likely to be found;\n\n(b) An order to refrain from contact or direct or indirect communication with the victim;\n\n(c) An order prohibiting possession or control of firearms or other weapons;
