The Washington Statute on Violations of Orders of Protection This statute says that violating an order of protection can be a gross misdemeanor or a class C felony, depending on the facts of the situation. The respondent must know about the existence of the order of protection before being found guilty of violating it.
If you get served with a temporary restraining or protection order, you will need to check the order for the date, the time, and the location of the court hearing where you will be allowed to tell your side of the story. You must appear at this hearing or a default order will be issued against you.
Courts in Washington State can impose penalties of jail time up to one year, a fine of up to $5,000, or both jail time and a fine. Also, the judge can order electronic monitoring. Getting convicted of violating an order of protection can have a significant negative impact on your life.
A petition must describe the acts of domestic violence committed against the protected person/s by an intimate partner or a family or household member. The court will either deny or grant a temporary order effective for up to 14 days.
The protected person technically cannot violate their own order. Protective orders only limit the actions of the restrained person. Even if the protected person contacts the restrained person, courts will not charge them with a violation.

Unfortunately, it does not matter who invited the contact. The alleged victim is not restricted from initiating contact with the defendant. If you reply to their electronic communication or do not immediately leave their physical proximity, this is considered a willful violation of the order.
At the final hearing, the burden is on the petitioner to prove by a preponderance of the evidence that facts satisfy whichever statute they are seeking protection under. The petitioner gets to present his or her evidence to the court (testimony, declarations, sworn reports) and then the respondent gets to do the same.
