CA SP added information on CHO's

August 2019

We translated into Spanish the information we recently added to the California Civil Harassment Orders section. We updated the questions Am I eligible to file for a civil harassment order? Who can I file against? and What protections can I get in a civil harassment order?  and we also created a new question in both the Civil Harassment Orders section and the Domestic Violence Restraining Orders section called If I qualify for both a CHO and a DVRO, which one should I apply for?
