To give an option on a legal document would require seeing the document. Best thing to do is meet with an attorney and after reviewing the document they will be able to answer your questions.

My niece tried meth a few times, realized how far she had let herself go. She contacted her parents for support, has begun counseling, and asked her parents to give her random drug tests(at her cost) to hold her accountable. She is married, her husband has been on marijuana/drugs for a very long... View More

His threats are a crime, called extortion. She should keep his texts about this, and tell her divorce lawyer about them, and her drug history. Tell her not to worry about this. Police won't do anything about it.
He hit first, and she hit back because he said her daughter was a mistake.

Probably none if the police didn't investigate or arrest her. I really don't think she will have any trouble.
A person was assaulted while they were holding their child but then later dropped the protection order, can the state press charges? There is physical evidence of said assault and there was an arrest.

Yes they certainly can.

I recommend that you don't drop charges. But if you really want it to drop, show up and ask the Judge to do it.
Moved in with engaged partner, did not show tendencies of abuse throughout the relationship. After a month he started showing erratic behavior - argumentative, unfolding controlling attitude, name calling, locking me out of the house, acting as though it was nothing. It became bad, I knew I had to... View More

If you mean a "No Contact" domestic violence Protective Order, you'll need to be here in Oklahoma to sign papers, and appear for trial.

I am hoping to go into the veterinary field and working with animals.

He's fled to Wisconsin after the military and has been in and out of jail since. I dropped two domestic violence cases in Colorado (where he was stationed) out of fear of him. He's now all of sudden claiming our child isn't his and won't pay a cent. Part of the divorce agreement... View More

If there is a court order in force to pay child support, and he is in the military, it's very easy to collect. But it's very obvious that you need an experienced family law attorney to help you. Hire one immediately! He is continuing to abuse you through this process.

Bottom line: With something this serious, DO NOT attempt to represent yourself. If a final protective order is granted, your case could be damaged beyond repair. You need to hire an attorney asap! If you are not proactive the case will drag on and you will get run over. Get help quick!!!
I am in the process of appealing it. The only reason it was granted is because I was late for court. Also I used to be employed at this same place. She slashed my tires and then filed for a protective order. And I have done nothing to her.
answered on Jan 3, 2018
Yes, you may apply for the job, just conduct yourself in a professional manner around her.
answered on Dec 29, 2017
No it should not, as long as you're not in possession of firearms.

As a general rule yes. You, or the person who took pictures must "identify" them, as to time place and subject, and state that they are a fair representation of what they purport to show.

Not necessarily, it depends on ALL the evidence presented at the preliminary hearing.
My ex is dating a man who pled no contest to a past child abuse charge. Do I have to allow my children to still go to her house with him around?
answered on Dec 20, 2017
I think it would depend on the severity of the charges and the particulars of the case.
Is it illegal for someone to contact me if I have a protective order against them
answered on Dec 17, 2017
No, but they would likely be violating the terms of the protective order if they respond.

Before he tries to keep the kids, he should file a motion for temporary emergency custody. There is no way for me to know what he may TRY to do.
If he does pull something… You should consult an experienced Family Law Attorney, in your area, for help with this problem
