Laws current as of December 5, 2024 How can a sexual assault restraining order help me?
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
