RESTRAINING ORDER - Domestic Violence Restraining Order (DVRO) - A Domestic Violence Restraining Order can include these types of orders: \
- No contact,
- Not harass,
- Not stalk,
- Not threaten,
- Not to harm people protected by the order,
- Stay away by a certain distance, and/or
- Move out from a home that is shared with the protected person
Most Domestic Violence Restraining Orders are filed concurrently with a request for a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO). If filing a DRVO with a TRO, ONLY PAY FOR EITHER THE DVRO OR TRO, not both.
A DVRO hearing is scheduled for approximately THREE WEEKS after filing, though that date is sometimes continued to a later date. At the hearing, the court can grant a DVRO (also called a Restraining Order After Hearing) for up to five years (this may vary from state to state).
Does not include any filing fees or court costs.
