Oregon Renewing a Restraining Order is a process for extending a protective order in the state of Oregon. This type of restraining order is designed to protect victims of domestic violence, stalking, or harassment from their abuser. There are two main types of restraining orders in Oregon: Permanent Restraining Orders (PRO) and Temporary Restraining Orders (TO). A PRO lasts for a year, and a TO is in effect for a maximum of 180 days. To extend a restraining order, the petitioner must file a motion to renew the order before its expiration date. The court will then review the motion and decide whether to extend the order, based on the merits of the case. If the order is renewed, the petitioner must file a confirmation of service form to make sure the respondent is served with the renewed order. A restraining order can be renewed as many times as necessary to protect the petitioner from their abuser.
