LovinMeNow 04-09-2008, 09:50 PM Go to the DV (domestic violence) unit in your county and speak to an officer there. They will help you fill out the paperwork to have it dropped. You will have to go before the judge, and the final decision will be his/hers. Usually they want to know what steps have been taken to avoid this happening again. They will also have you sit with a counselor to make sure that you understand that once the order is dropped, you are no longer protected. Of course, if something should happen you can go back and ask the court for another order of protection. I will tell you that the court does not appreciate someone who requests these orders, only to drop them and if it is done repeatedly then the judge is less likely to grant your request. The court takes these very seriously due to the increase in violence against women. |
