Civil No-Contact Orders ("50C orders")

A civil no-contact order (“50C”) provides protection from nonconsensual sexual conduct and stalking from someone with whom you do not have an intimate or familial relationship, such as an acquaintance, co-worker, neighbor, or stranger. In addition, an employer can file on behalf of an abused employee.
