Not really. If you’re in danger or risk of imminent harm, you can file a VPO.

That said, if your abuser has left you alone for over 15 years and shows no sign of coming around, you could have court costs assessed against you.

It sounds like you might need an emergency motion to modify whatever underlying custody agreement / order is currently in place.

If no order is in place, then your kid can stay with either parent.

Q: Can I keep money wired into my account by accident?

I had a loan transfered into my account for $6900 yesterday. Today an additional $6900 was wired in. Can I keep that money? Or is it inevitable to have to pay it back. The loan was only for $6900.

I paid a wire fee twice, once for each wire.

You will have to pay it back. They will eventually discover it. However, a better course would be to call the loan company and let them know of their mistake. You can ask them to reimburse you for your wire fees.
