Restraining order hearings in El Cajon are complex and require an experienced lawyer, who understands the best way to defend against the allegations. If the court grants a restraining order, the restrained party can face serious consequences. For example, the party may be restricted from having contact with certain people, including their own family members. The court can also restrict the party from certain locations, impose firearm restrictions, order the party to move out of their home, as well as impose other orders that may impact their personal freedom.
Civil Harassment Restraining Orders under CCP 527.6 require:
- Unlawful violence;
- A credible threat of violence; or
- A knowing and willful course of conduct directly related to the party seeking the restraining order that seriously annoys, alarms, or harasses and serves no legitimate purpose.
DVTRO requests can be based on the following:
- Sexual Assault;
- Recklessly or intentionally causing or attempting to cause bodily injury;
- Placing a person in reasonable apprehension of imminent serious bodily injury to that person or to another;
- Engaging in any behavior that has been or could be illegal such as molesting, attacking, striking, stalking, threatening, battering, harassing, destroying personal property, contacting the other by mail, telephone, or otherwise disturbing the peace of the other party.
