An order of protection is an order issued by a Missouri court pursuant to the Domestic Violence Act that restrains a person from abusing, stalking, sexually assaulting, or harassing another person. Unlike a restraining order, an order of protection carries criminal penalties for violation.
An ex parte order generally will be valid until your court hearing for a full order of protection, which usually takes place within 15 days. If you desire, you can receive a notification when the ex parte order is served on the abuser. Ask the clerk for information on how to get this notification.
The specific elements you need to prove to get a restraining order vary from state to state, but in general, you need to show: A specific instance or instances of abuse or harassment (such as sexual assault by an intimate partner) The threat of violence or of further abusive behavior or harassment.
