Protecting the Abused and Defending the Wrongfully Accused

If the court determines that you are in danger, a temporary injunction may be issued until the matter is fully heard by the court.

Types of Domestic Violence Injunctions
There are two types of domestic violence injunctions: temporary and permanent.
The temporary (ex parte) injunction can immediately take effect and offers full protection until a court date is set and the full hearing has taken place.
Once a successful hearing has occurred, the final judgment of injunction (permanent) is entered. This type of injunction may offer greater protection and last longer.
