There are 2 main types of protection orders people can use when they’re afraid someone is a threat to them or their children. These are:
- restraining orders, and
- peace bonds
Protection orders can put limits on where a person can go, who they can communicate with, or both.
To find out more about protection orders, you can access the September issue of ON THE RADAR by clicking HERE.
