How Do I Ask The Court To Renew My Restraining Order {DV-700-INFO}

DV-700-INFO - HOW DO I ASK THE COURT TO RENEW MY RESTRAINING ORDER? (Domestic Violence Prevention). This form is used to explain how you can ask a judge to renew a long-term restraining order. What does “renew” mean? It means to extend your current restraining order (form DV-130). If renewed, the judge would extend it for at least five years, or make the order permanent (no expiration). When do I ask for the renewal? You must ask to renew your restraining order before your current restraining order expires. The expiration date is listed on the first page of your current restraining order. You can make the request up to three months before your order expires. Give yourself enough time, if possible, to fill out and file all the required paperwork before your order expires.
