Description

This official form tells the court and the other side if you agree or disagree with a request to renew a restraining order. This form is filled out by the restrained person only. The California Response to Request to Renew Gun Violence Restraining Order (GYRO) is a state law that provides protection from gun violence to victims of domestic violence. The GYRO is a type of restraining order that is issued by a court and requires the subject of the order to surrender their guns and ammunition to law enforcement or a licensed firearms' dealer. The GYRO is intended to protect victims from further harm and can be renewed or extended beyond the initial order. There are two types of California responses to a request to renew a GYRO. The first type is a “grant” response, which is when the court grants the request to renew the GYRO for an additional period of time. The second type of response is a “deny” response, which is when the court denies the request to renew the GYRO. In either case, the subject of the GYRO is required to surrender any guns or ammunition that they possess to law enforcement or a licensed firearms' dealer before the expiration of the original order. Upon renewal, the subject of the GYRO must again surrender their guns and ammunition, and the GYRO will remain in effect until the expiration date of the renewed order. The GYRO can also be extended beyond the initial order at the request of the court. In California, Gyros are issued by courts to provide protection from gun violence to victims of domestic violence and can be renewed or extended upon request. The court may grant or deny the request to renew the GYRO, and, in either case, the subject of the order must surrender their guns and ammunition. Gyros are intended to provide victims with protection from further harm and can be extended beyond the initial order.
