How do restraining orders work? ?
If you can establish a pattern that a court recognizes as harrassment or stalking, they can put a restraining order on them. A lot of it depends on how those things are defined in your local laws, though, but usually you don't have to be physically attacked, but that makes proving it much easier than putting together a pattern of stalking behavior. I think with any court action, there's usually costs involved, unless the police are on your side and ask for the actions to be taken.
My husband violated restraining order 4 times?
I got a temp restraining order against my husband on June 3rd. He violated the temp restraining order twice on June 6th with no arrest but I do have the police records. I got a final injuction against him on June 11th and on June 12th he again violated the restraining order on that date by showing up at my house to get his personal things without a sheriff escort and my neighbor who is a sheriff but was off duty witnessed him at my property. Then on July 5th - my husband placed a sarcastic anniversary card in my mailbox and this was witnessed by a different neighbor. My husband received an order to appear for this voilation but was not physically arrested. He has to appear in court for this violation on August 12th. My attorney has filed a motion to extend the current restraining order which is set to expire on July 30th. Do I stand of chance of getting the extension even though he has not tried to physically hurt me? His past abuse has been emotional/verbal/destruction of prop.

Can I file a restraining order online?
No, you absolutely cannot file a restraining order online. You have to file an affidavit and have the affidavit read and heard before a judge will issue a restraining order. You need a damned good reason and proof of why you’re asking for one too.When I see questions like this I automatically go by my experience and I have to think that the person asking is going to be trying to use the legal system as a punishment towards a lover who rebuked the person asking. NOTHING pissed me off more than having to deal with these types of cases during my years in the legal field. Scorned lovers manipulating the court system to gain favor or inflict harm upon the other is disgusting. They’re a criminal offense and stay on your record. It’s very costly for the other person to defend one too and have it removed.

What happens to you if you miss a court date for a restraining order?
In the case of a protection order. If one, or both of the parties fail to show may decide to continue the order, or allow it to expire. This is mainly based on if the other party showed for court. If so the judge may find in their favor. What you need to do now is call the county clerk and see who drew you case (what judge was it assigned to) then ask to leave a message for the judge to contact you. The judge or his staff will call you and advise you of what the status is and what the verdict was. Also, if the judge feels you had a reason to be out of court they may extend the order of protection on the spot.
How long can a permanent restraining order last?
in this case, permanent means that it is a standing order. Once the appeal time has expired, the order remains effective for as long as the statutes provide. In some cases that may mean a year. In other it can be forever. The term permanent restraining order is most often used to distinguish it from a temporary order. Temporary orders are set to expire on a day and time that has been set forth in the order. An example would be in a divorce where a court may issue an order restraining one party from entering a dwelling until the matter can be heard fully by the court on a specified date and time.
