DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
The ending of a relationship may be one of the most stressful times in a
person's life. The actions and reactions of the parties involved may
precipitate angry feelings and it is sometimes necessary to obtain Court
orders to protect against physical harm. The Court will issue orders
where there is evidence of domestic violence, which is defined as:
physical harm, bodily injury, assault, or the infliction of fear of
imminent physical harm, bodily injury or sexual assault; or stalking, of
family or household members by another past or present family or
household member. Spousal abuse may be emotional rather than physical,
such as withholding sleep, disturbances at work, continual spying on a
spouse, harassing phone calls, and threats of physical force or
confinement.
There are several ways that you can get protective orders. In the
course of a divorce, it is typical to file restraining orders up front.
This can include domestic violence protection orders. Separate and
distinct from a divorce action, you can file a petitioner for domestic
violence protection order. If there is not a domestic
relationship, you can also file a petitioner for anti-harassment order.
There is no excuse for domestic violence. If it happens, call 911
immediately for assistance.
Many communities offer shelters for battered spouses and their
children. Details on these shelters are available from the police,
churches, family or conciliation courts, or local newspapers.
