Florida Restraining Order Lawyer Restraining Orders & Injunction
against violence I've defended many violation of injunction charges. Love can make you do crazy things. Most people in everyday language call them restraining orders. They are commonly associated with allegations of domestic battery, battery, felony battery, aggravated battery, aggravated assault and battery on a pregnant person,
As a practical matter, temporary injunctions are very easy to get. The petitioner (person claiming they have been the victim of violence, repeat violence, or sexual violence) fills out an affidavit. They state why the judge should give them a temporary injunction. Generally, they say that the respondent (the person who allegedly committed the battery) hit them, hit their child in their presence, or beat them up. The judge will set a hearing to determine if the injunction will continue. You are entitled to notice of the hearing. Usually, you will get served a subpoena by a police officer, with a copy of the petition.
A great criminal defense lawyer will cross examine the witnesses and essentially get a free deposition of the accuser for the impending criminal case. If granted, the injunction could be one year, two years, or indefinite. You can hire a restraining order criminal defense lawyer to help you modify or get rid of the injunction. The possible penalty for violating an injunction is one year in jail. Also, you may be subject to contempt of court charges and facing more jail time.
