Maybe the restraining order had a MOVE OUT order!
State of Oregon - Restraining Orders and Domestic Violence
If you have been a victim of physical abuse or threatened abuse, you may be able to get a restraining order under the Oregon Family Abuse Prevention Act.
This law allows you to obtain protection from domestic violence without having to file for a divorce or legal separation (although you can do so if you wish).
Restraining Order Requirements
You can get a restraining order under the Family Abuse Prevention Act if your situation fits the following criteria:
* Age. You are at least 18 years old, or you are younger than 18 and the person who abused you is at least 18 and 1) you are (or were) married to that person, or 2) you have been in a sexual relationship with that person.
* Relationship. The person who abused you is: 1) your husband, wife, or domestic partner; or 2) your former husband, wife, or domestic partner; or 3) an adult with whom you are living (or did live) in a sexual relationship; or 4) an adult with whom you have been in a sexual relationship in the last two years; or 5) an adult related to you by blood, marriage, or adoption; or 6) the parent of your child.
* What is meant by “abuse”? If in the last 180 days, the person you wish to restrain has:
physically injured you;
or tried to physically injure you;
or made you afraid that he or she was about to physically injure you or made you have sexual relations against your wishes by using force or threats of force.
* Ongoing Danger: You are in danger of more abuse very soon, and the person who abused you is a threat to the physical safety of you or your children.
NOTE: A judge cannot give you a restraining order solely for threats to take your children, rude behavior, verbal or emotional abuse, or damaged property unless you were in fear that you were about to be physically injured.
What Is A Restraining Order?
A restraining order is a court order that tells the person who hurt you (the “respondent”
to leave you and your children alone.
It can tell the respondent to move from your home and can deal with temporary custody and parenting time of your children.
It can also require the respondent to stay away from your home, school, place of employment, or your children’s day care provider.
You can ask the judge to add other orders (listed in the restraining order papers) that you think will help you stay safe. You also can ask the court to include an order that says the respondent cannot have guns.
The court could also order that a police officer “stand-by” for probably no more than 15 minutes while you (or the abuser who has been ordered to leave) remove essential personal items from the home.
A restraining order can only deal with custody and parenting time issues temporarily. To get “permanent” custody and parenting time orders, you need to a file a family law case, such as a divorce or a custody case.
