Restraining Orders

A temporary or final sexual assault restraining order can require that the abuser not:

• harass, stalk, or threaten you;
• come to your house, school, and workplace; and
• contact you.¹

Note: A final sexual assault restraining order that includes these protections cannot be granted until the abuser has received notice of the case and had an opportunity to be present for a court hearing.²
