No, not automatically.

yes. You should file a petition under the VAWA act (Violence Against Women Act). Discuss your case with counsel here in Florida.

The term of a "restraining order" (also known as an Order for Protection Against Violence) is set by the issuing judge. This can be extended or shortened by the court. Typically, any modification of the term of the order is done with notice to the victim/petitioner.

I would suggest changing your alarm code and contacting the company who you are billed through to notify them of the breach. I would also contact the nearest police department.

Just so you know , the word is "adjudication."

You cannot have it vacated. It is final.

You cannot seal nor expunge domestic violence convictions even with adjudication withheld.

Even if you would receive a pardon, you cannot get it sealed or expunged

If an injunction has been issued against you, you may be able to get it set aside if you did not receive proper notice of the court hearing and one was conducted without your knowledge. If however, you did receive notice and chose not attend and you would like to modify the terms of the injunction... View More

An injunction case is civil in nature and not criminal. You will not be issued a failure to appear.

Typically VAR is Clerk's Office shorthand for Violation Arraignment. CM, I'm not so sure. I would recommend call a local attorney who is familiar with local custom.

It is difficult to tell unless you put the abbreviation in some context.
