A South Carolina Permanent Restraining Order is a legal order issued by the court to protect one person from being abused, threatened, or harassed by another person. The order can be issued against a current or former spouse, someone living in the same household, someone with whom the victim has had a sexual relationship, or against a person stalking the victim. There are two types of South Carolina Permanent Restraining Order: Ex Parte Restraining Order and Final Restraining Order. An Ex Parte Restraining Order is a temporary order that can be issued quickly and without the defendant being present in court. In contrast, a Final Restraining Order is issued after the defendant is present in court to answer the charges. Both types of restraining orders can limit the defendant's contact with the victim, prohibit them from possessing weapons, and require the defendant to attend counseling.
