It is a legal document in which a Judge orders someone to follow specific conditions of behavior that is, tells someone things that they must or must not do. Police can make immediate arrests if they have reason to believe those conditions have been violated.
To obtain a restraining order, individuals must submit an application at the district court, provide evidence of harm or threat, and attend a hearing; in emergencies, temporary orders can be issued quickly without the abusers presence.
Proof of service must be filed with the court before your hearing date to get a protective order if the respondent does not show up. Bring any evidence you have, like photographs, medical records, or torn clothing. Also, bring witnesses who know about the violence, like a neighbor, relative, or police.
In most cases, a Protective Order will last up to 2 years. There are some situations where a court can issue an order that lasts longer than 2 years. Although you may file these forms without having a lawyer, you are encouraged to get a lawyer to help you in this process.
Each case is different, but the application process can take as little as a day or up to a few weeks depending on the facts and required documentation. Once a protective order is filed it will take a minimum of two weeks.

A protective order is only available for people who have experienced dating or family violence and it can lead to criminal penalties (the Respondent/violator can be arrested) if violated. A restraining order can be ordered by a court for many different types of situations and only has civil penalties if violated.
