Hi my mom got a restraining order against my ex boyfriend the restraining order is in my moms name and her address I’m just one of the names on it and I was a minor when I was on it now I’m an adult and I don’t live with my mom if so person was to contact me would they still get in trouble or is it void for me bc I do not live at that address I’m also not a minor anymore
A: I think the only way to know for certain is to have the restraining order reviewed. Remember you always have the ability to contact the police if he is contacting you and has a history with you bad enough that required a PPO. Reminding the police there is a PPO in place might also help them tailor their response.
