Q: Is it qualified to issue a workplace restraining order?

Broadcom Inc issued a workplace place restraining order to against me. I left the company 3 years ago. I contacted some of my coworkers and managers because my life is heavily disturbed by the manager who wrongly terminated me by cheating the HR in the past three years. And I asked their help to report to the HR to stop it and leave me alone. Unfortunately company issued the workplace restraining order although I never have any unlawful conducts. In the restraining order, 25 people's names are there, including the board members. Most of them I do not know or never have any contact before. Is it qualified for a company to issue such kind of workplace restraining order? Thanks lot!

A: I am sorry but no one can know the answer to your question without far more information. However if the court has granted the restraining order, you better not violate it. If you wish to challenge the restraining order you will have to locate and consult with an attorney who can be allowed to learn all about this situation and to see the paperwork that gave rise to the court's order.

Good luck to you.
