A: You have made an argument to raise at an evidentiary hearing or trial on the matter. Perhaps one of these people is serving as a guardian for your grandmother or your brother. Your question does not really give enough detail to give much more of an answer. If you are facing a protection order hearing you will want to hire local counsel to fight it. This forum is for general information and no substitute for you own lawyer.
