In this informational webinar we explore the different types of restraining orders that can be issued to protect a domestic violence survivor and discuss common issues that arise before judges when applying for or requesting transfer or renewal of such an order between the Family and Juvenile court systems. We also review the important differences substantively and procedurally between civil domestic violence restraining orders and criminal protective orders.
