"Who is eligible for an injunction?"

Family members, including spouses and roommates, fearing imminent physical harm can seek a domestic violence injunction. Whether married or cohabitating, this applies if there’s a child together.

"When can I obtain an injunction?"

If the court believes there’s an immediate risk of domestic violence, it can grant a temporary injunction even without both parties present. A complete hearing with both parties typically follows, but if you feel threatened, you can request a temporary injunction right away to prevent potential domestic violence.

"What is the purpose of the injunction?"

If the court determines there’s an immediate threat of violence, they may issue a domestic violence injunction to protect you. This injunction could include orders like 

  • Preventing future contact or violence. 
  • Granting exclusive use of the home. 
  • Requiring mental health treatment. 
  • Participation in a batterers’ intervention program.
  • Deciding child custody
  • Ordering child support, and 
  • Other unspecified relief.
