Got questions?

We have answers to the most popular questions from our customers. If you can't find an answer to your question, please contact us.

What are the three types of protection?

There are three types of orders of protection that can provide victims with legal protections to support their safetyemergency protective orders, temporary restraining orders, and permanent restraining orders.

How long does a CPO last in California?

If the victim of the crime is not in court at the time of sentencing, they may need to contact the Victim Witness Assistance Center or prosecutors office to learn whether a CPO was issued and to get a copy. The CPO may be valid for up to 10 years.

What is the burden of proof for a DVRo in California?

The standard of proof for issuing a final DVRO is much higher than that for a TRO. For example, the judge will decide whether domestic violence occurred based on a preponderance of the evidence, meaning more likely than not (51% or more) that the alleged abuse happened.

What proof do you need for a restraining order in California?

After having a court hearing, a judge can grant you a restraining order after hearing that can last up to five years. However, if there is no termination date on the order, the order will last three years from the date it was issued.

What is the difference between a restraining order and a protective order in California?

Legal Distinctions: Restraining orders are filed in civil court, while protective orders are issued in criminal court, often in domestic violence cases. Simultaneous Use of Both Orders: Possible in some scenarios, like domestic violence, where both can be pursued simultaneously.
