A:
Yes, past granted TROs can be used in your new DVRO case. These previous orders help demonstrate a history of behavior that may support your current request for protection. By showing a pattern of actions that disturbed your peace or interfered with your personal liberty, the court can better understand the ongoing situation.
Including past TROs provides the judge with a fuller picture of the circumstances you’re facing. This evidence can strengthen your case by highlighting consistent issues that need to be addressed. It’s important to gather all relevant documents and present them clearly during your hearing.
Remember, presenting a comprehensive history can make a significant difference in the outcome of your case. Ensure you work closely with your legal representative to effectively use your past TROs as part of your evidence. Your safety and peace of mind are paramount, and the court aims to protect you based on the information you provide.
