FAQ
The Illinois Domestic Violence Act tells the reader what a court must find to issue an order of protection and then asks the reader to piece together the proofs to allow the court to make that finding. Physical harm or threat of physical harm to the petitioner. Conduct that causes emotional distress to the petitioner.
To obtain an Order of Protection, you can: Contact a domestic violence program for assistance. Ask an attorney to file in civil court. Request an order with your divorce. Request an order during a criminal prosecution.
The specific elements you need to prove to get a restraining order vary from state to state, but in general, you need to show: A specific instance or instances of abuse or harassment (such as sexual assault by an intimate partner) The threat of violence or of further abusive behavior or harassment.
If the judge decides that there was abuse and that there is also a credible threat to the plaintiff's safety, a final order of protection will be granted and will last for up to one year.
After the hearing, a judge can issue a protective order that lasts up to 18 months, and can later be renewed after a hearing in front of a judge. The parts of the protective order that tell the abuser to not abuse, harass, or interfere with you can last forever.
To cover those situations in which notice cannot be reasonably given, Rule 65 provides for temporary restraining orders (or TROs), A temporary restraining order is like a preliminary injunction but, if it is issued without notice to the adverse party, its duration is limited to ten days.
Illinois law provides that a TRO may last only 10 days, except in certain circumstances. Illinois law recognizes two different types of TROs: TROs with and without notice (the latter being referred to by courts as ex parte TROs).
