The Illinois Notice of Entry of Order of Protection is a legal document used to inform someone that a judge has ordered that they must abide by certain conditions or face legal consequences. It is typically issued by the court in domestic violence cases, and is issued to provide protection to the victim of the abuse. There are two types of Illinois Notice of Entry of Order of Protection: Emergency Order of Protection and Plenary Order of Protection. An Emergency Order of Protection is issued without notice to the defendant and is designed to provide immediate protection to the victim. A Plenary Order of Protection is issued after notice to the defendant and provides long-term protection to the victim. Both types of orders typically require the defendant to stay away from the victim and refrain from any type of contact, including physical, verbal, or electronic.
