What do we need to do to get TRO?
A Washington state restraining order is for use
in family law issues and property issues. A restraining order is used to
prevent the respondent from having any contact with the petitioner and any
children stated in the restraining order. A restraining order prevents the
respondent from visiting the petitioner's home, work, school and daycare. A
restraining order is not used in domestic violence situations. A Domestic
Violence Protection Order would be used for domestic violence situations. If
you feel that you are being harassed or stalked by a non relative an Anti
Harassment Order would be used rather than a restraining order. If you have any
questions at filing a restraining order, contact your county clerk's office or
family court office. If a restraining order is put in place by a judge, the
respondent will be served notice by a sheriff. If the respondent breaks the law
according to the rules set place in the restraining order, he will be held in
contempt of court and arrested.
