Repeat Violence Injunctions:

Any person who is the victim of repeat violence or the parent or legal guardian of any minor child who is living at home who is the victim of repeat violence may file a sworn petition for an injunction for protection against repeat violence.

Issuance of a Temporary Injunction:

When a party files for a repeat violence injunction, the Court determines whether or not a temporary injunction is appropriate based solely on the allegations contained in the Petition and whether the Court feels there is an immediate danger based on these allegations. In some cases, these allegations are false which is why a hearing is set within 15 days to allow both parties to appear and be heard as to whether the issuance of a repeat violence injunction is warranted in the case.

At the hearing on the repeat violence injunction, both sides will have the opportunity to present testimony and evidence to the Court as to why they believe the injunction should be issued or denied. It is important to strongly consider retaining an attorney for representation at the injunction hearing, as an attorney will know the rules of evidence and how to properly prepare and present your side of the case in a persuasive and effective manner.
