WomensLaw serves and supports all survivors, no matter their sex or gender.
Arizona law does not specifically state that a person can extend his/her order. Please speak to a lawyer to ask if it’s possible to apply for a new order before the current order expires if there is continued fear of the respondent, for example, even if no new incidents have occurred since the current order was issued.
