A South Carolina Restraining Order is a legal document that is issued by a court to protect an individual from harm caused by another person. It typically prohibits the restrained person from contacting, communicating with, or coming within a certain distance of the protected individual. There are two types of South Carolina Restraining Orders: Domestic Violence Restraining Orders and Stalking Restraining Orders. Domestic Violence Restraining Orders are issued when a person has been a victim of domestic violence, harassment, or other abuse, and seeks protection from the abuser. Stalking Restraining Orders are issued when a person has been the victim of stalking, or when a person fears they are in danger of being stalked. Both types of Restraining Orders protect an individual from further harm, and can include orders staying away from the protected individual, not to contact them, and to not possess any weapons.
