What are Orders of Protection and Injunctions Against Harassment?

Orders of Protection and Injunctions Against Harassment are legal tools that provide vital protection for individuals from any form of violence or threat. These orders are issued by the court on behalf of the victim, who must file a petition in order to obtain them. Typically, these orders will prohibit any type of contact between the perpetrator and the protected person, as well as set geographical boundaries which restrict them from coming into a certain distance of one another. Depending on the severity of the situation, such orders may also require that the perpetrator wear a GPS device or submit to other surveillance measures.

According to the City of Phoenix, the purpose of a Protective Order is to restrain a person from committing an act of harassment or domestic violence against another person or persons. Representation against an Order of Protection can mean all the difference on whether you have something permanently added to your record.
