emergency protective order

Read a random definition: support order

A quick definition of emergency protective order:

An emergency protective order is a quick court order that tells someone to stop doing something harmful to another person. It's usually given in cases of domestic violence where the victim needs protection right away. The person who is being ordered to stop doesn't always know about it at first, but they will be told later.

A more thorough explanation:

An emergency protective order is a legal document that temporarily prohibits one party from doing something to another party. This order is usually granted quickly and without notice to the other party. It is often used in cases of domestic violence where the victim needs immediate protection.

A woman who has been physically abused by her partner can go to the police and request an emergency protective order. The order may prohibit her partner from coming near her or contacting her in any way. This order is temporary and will only last until a hearing can be held to determine if a longer-term restraining order is necessary.

Another example of an emergency protective order is when a person is being stalked or harassed. The order may prohibit the stalker from coming within a certain distance of the victim or contacting them in any way.

These examples illustrate how an emergency protective order can be used to provide immediate protection to someone who is in danger. It is important to note that while an emergency protective order can be granted quickly, it is only temporary and a hearing will be held to determine if a longer-term restraining order is necessary.
