Step 1: Go to the superior court and fill out the forms.

You can go to the superior court to fill out the appropriate forms.1 To find the contact information for the superior court, go to our Guam Courthouse Locations page.

On the forms, you will be the “petitioner” and the abuser will be the “respondent.”  When writing about the incidents, include details and dates, if possible.

Remember to bring some form of personal identification, such as a driver’s license or other identification that includes your picture, in case you need to show it to the court clerk when you sign the forms.

You cannot be charged a fee to file for a sexual offense protection order.2
