Restraining Order Defense in Los Angeles
Learn about Your Rights from a Defense Lawyer
Protection by a court from threats, stalking, harassment and physical or sexual abuse is accomplished through the use of a restraining order. Also called "protective orders," the safety provided by these court mandates can extend beyond just the individual being protected to members of their family as well.
Restraining orders are either:
- Those that order an individual to cease doing certain actions such as contacting another, stalking, threatening, striking, destroying personal property and others. These are called personal conduct orders.
- Stay-away orders commanding someone to keep a specified distance from the person being protected. The locations that are protected by these kinds of orders include a home, places where the protected person's children go to school or receive childcare, work, vehicles and other important or usual places where the protected individual goes.
- Residence exclusion orders that force the individual being restrained to leave where the protected person is staying, until the court hears the matter.
There are two sides to a restraining order and we at Law Offices of David D. Diamond are sensitive to both. A committed Los Angeles criminal defense lawyer from our firm can represent those who need the protection that a restraining order can give. At times, however, a restraining order can be asked for out of spite, anger or for an illegal purpose. When this is the case, we defend the rights and freedoms of those who are being victimized.
