I know I have mentioned before in previous
posts that I was raped by erics brother.
He has been in jail since may and is
getting out december 30th. Does anyone
know how long it takes to get a
restraining order? Im going in to the
womens resource center on monday to get an
appointment to get one set up. I know
that you have to get it approved by a
judge and everything, so I dont htink he
will get the papers until after he is out.
I recently found out this, otherwise I
would have done it already....

Its such a messed up situation, because
its erics brother. He was really close
to him before this happened, and now, eric
despises him obviously. So its been
tough.

Well, they dont talk about it, but I dont
see his dad much. I see his mom all the
time and she doesnt talk about it. But
the day after it happened I told her
everything because she came over after she
heard about it. She was really supportive
of me and she said she was disgusted. But
I know she visits him in jail.

This is way late.... Lol...
But... I put a restraining order on my
fob and they served it about 3 hrs after I
filed it... Took me about 2hrs to file
the whole thing...
Then you have to go to court about a week
later to the final restraining order
hearing (the inital order is called a tro-
temporary restraining order)...
It also bars him from having anyone
associated with him harass you on his
behalf.

Sorry this is kinda late too .. Lol but I
only just saw this ...
Usually if you can prove that there is an
immidiate danger you xcan get an avo a lot
faster than usual .. And in this case I
am sure they would consider there enough
of a threat to you to give you one fairly
fast .. (im not sure it might be
different where I am but I am pretty sure
that's how it works.)

A friend of mine had a similar prob with a
boy. In most states you can get a
temporary restraining order in no time -
you literally get it then and there at the
courthouse. Then that gives you time to
get a full restraining order. If he
breaks either one of them you can get him
put in jail.

There was a guy stalking me about a month
ago, (hes like 65) he met me at my work (i
was a waitress) and he kept coming in my
work and sitting there, driving past my
house, and calling my cell non stop. So I
switched jobs and I was working at sears,
and he was in there buying car parts one
day and seen me, and he kept calling my
work number and telling me he would be
waiting by my car when I got off (at
night) and he even started going to my
moms house and saying "michelle told me to
come here and get her schedule from you"
so we called the cops, and the officer
said we could get a ofp, but it wouldent
do any good if he wanted to do something
bad enough. He said ofp is a warning for
them not to come around you. And if they
do, you would call the deputy and they
would have a talk with him. But they cant
actually punish him without any proof.
But he said if I got a restraining order,
then if he did come within so many (feet?)
of me, he would go to jail for violating
the police orders or whatever. So I
believe one is a warning to leave you
alone, and the other is court ordered.
From what the officer told me, but I dont
know if its right...

Yeah an ro is similar to a criminal
trespassing warning (except with an ro you
are dealing with a person, not
property)... If they cross the boundaries
set forth in the document, you can call
the police and they go to jail... A ro
also covers phone calls, e mails, letters,
etc.
An ofp is just a warning... That they
know that if they do come near you etc
that you will take further action.
Its usually used just to scare people
(usually works) into leaving you alone.
