Summary:
The process I took to get a retrainging order against my ex-husband to have him removed after a week of abuse. This may be used to show others that it is a scary process but a very necessary to save lives!

Details or Sample:
It seems each state has different names for a restraining order and even different categories of restraining orders. There are Temporary Protection Orders (TPO), Protection from Domestic Abuse Orders (PDAO) just to name a few. In some states, a police officer has to request one from the courts for you and in other states, such as Ohio (where I live), you have to go to the court to seek one out for yourself. To begin the process of obtaining some kind of protection with the court system talk to a police officer. In this article, I will describe to you the steps I took in order to obtain my TPO that led to a Domestic Violence Protection Order.

Like I stated above, the first step I took in obtaining legal protection was approaching a police officer. My intention of talking to him was to see how I could get my husband out of our apartment after an extremely violent weekend. I was told that in our state, if his name is on the lease, he has every right to be there but if he was being abusive and I feared for my or my children"s safety, I could go to the courthouse and file a request for domestic violence protection
