    Restraining order against husband
    I will try to keep this short, there was a restraining order filed to bar husband from the marital home and from harassing wife but of course husband is running all over it, showing up at home, breaking in etc... police were called but did nothing saying "it was a cival matter". Had second hearing and judge upheld order as well as issuing a warrant for contempt. question is now that he is going to be arrested wife is afraid to stay at home unsure of what husband will do now. If wife leaves the home and gets own place will that make the restraining order invalid? Would a judge uphold the order since wife said she had no where else to stay when she filed it and now is able to secure another residence?

    The wife should discuss the situation with her lawyer.

    If the restraining order was contingent upon the wife's inability to find another place to live, and her circumstances have changed, that may provide grounds to modify the order.
