During the course of a divorce, the end of a relationship or other domestic situation, circumstances sometimes arise which cause an individual to fear for the safety of their children or themselves.

An domestic injunction, also commonly called an "order of protection" or a "restraining order", is a court order typically ordered due to domestic violence. A restraining order can also be ordered due to repeat violence.

Basic elements necessary for a domestic violence injunction, or order of protection include:

Must be between family or household members;
The Petitioner must have been the victim of domestic violence or is in fear of an imminent attack;
The sworn petition must allege the existence of domestic violence with supporting facts; and
Jurisdiction is where the Petitioner currently resides, temporarily resides; where Respondent resides, and where domestic violence occurred.
