Protective orders are designed to protect the victims of domestic violence. It is an additional court order that will require an individual within 500 feet of that individual, to stay away from their home, to stay away from their business, to stay away from places they regularly go, like their employment, or like the gym, or like the store that they go to three times a week.
It can require them to seek counseling. It can require individuals to remain totally away from that individual, and then if they have any encounter that was not intended, that that individual must turn around and walk the opposite direction. Again, protective orders do protect those people that are the victims of domestic violence.
