There are two kinds of protection orders in Ohio. A temporary ex parte protection order can be granted the same day you file your petition in order to give you immediate protection from the abuser. The judge can grant the ex parte order if there is “good cause” to do so.
There are a handful of reasons why a judge could decide to deny a petition for a protective order, including: The petitioner does not have sufficient evidence of abuse or harassment. The petitioner fails to complete their petition accurately and completely. The petitioner fails to attend their protective order hearing.
Evidence from the person seeking the order can take different forms: Witness Testimony: Statements from people who witnessed abusive behavior. Photographic Evidence: Photos of injuries caused by violence, with timestamps. Text Messages or Emails: Messages with threatening language or detailing abuse.
