Difference Between an Order of Protection and Injunction Against Harassment

Arizona has three types of protective orders. The first one is an Order of Protection.

An Order of Protection requires there to be a familial type relationship between the parties.

The parties could be married, divorced, or have a child together to qualify for an Order of Protection.

There are two types of Orders of Protection.

One is your standard Order of Protection that may be obtained by filing a Petition for Order of Protection and appearing before a judge.

There is also an Emergency Order of Protection which can be applied for by a police officer while still at the scene of a domestic violence incident.

The next type of protective order in Arizona is an Injunction Against Harassment, which applies when there is a familial type relationship between the parties.

Lastly, the court can issue an Injunction to Prohibit Workplace Harassment.

Obtaining an Order of Protection in Arizona

Order of Protection Attorneys in Arizona.

To obtain an Order of Protection in Arizona, you need to complete paperwork at the actual court where you are seeking the Order of Protection.

The Order of Protection attorneys at our law office advise our clients to either have us present when you appear before the court on your Order of Protection case or have us meet with you to ensure the allegations you are making support the issuance of an Order of Protection.

Fighting, Dismissing or Modifying an Order of Protection

An Order of Protection is a matter of public record, which means employers, co-workers, friends, and family can all obtain a copy of the Petition for Order of Protection containing the allegations made against you.

The court can also order you to turn your firearms over to law enforcement, prohibit you from possessing firearms in the future, can order you to not be present at certain locations and can order you not have contact with your children.

If you or the person who was served with an Order of Protection requests a hearing, it will be important to speak to an attorney immediately.

A hearing on an Order of Protection must be scheduled within 5 days if the order prevents a person from returning to their home.

If the order does not prevent a person from returning to their home, the court must schedule a hearing on a Request for Hearing on an Order of Protection within 10 days.

Since these hearings are scheduled very quickly, it is important you speak to an attorney as quickly as possible.

That attorney will have to obtain all of the evidence that will be used in that hearing in a very short period of time.

Your attorney may need to issue and serve witnesses with trial subpoenas to require their attendance at an Order of Protection hearing.

He or she may also have to issue subpoenas to obtain medical records or police reports.

If you or a family member need an Order of Protection or needs to contest an Order of Protection that has been served upon them, it is important you have an attorney with the experience to present all the evidence necessary to win your case.
