A restraining order is a court order that prohibits one person from contacting or coming near another person. Restraining orders are typically issued in cases of domestic violence, stalking, or harassment. If you are served with a restraining order, it is important to take it seriously and follow its terms. Violating a restraining order can result in criminal charges.
There are a number of things you can do to avoid getting a restraining order. First, it is important to be respectful of others and their boundaries. Do not engage in any behavior that could be considered threatening or harassing. Second, if you are involved in a relationship that is ending, it is important to do so in a respectful and peaceful manner. Do not make threats or engage in any other behavior that could lead to a restraining order being issued.
