Restraining Orders

If you have a permanent order based on the abuser being convicted of sexually assaulting you in the first, second, or third degree, the abuser can file a motion to have the order reviewed if the criminal conviction is vacated. The judge is required to change (modify) or remove (vacate) your order if the abuser proves that the conviction was vacated, and the judge will consider all relevant factors when deciding what to do. If your order has been in effect for longer than the maximum amount of time it could have been granted without the sexual assault conviction, the judge will vacate it.¹
