    Default Relief After False Protection from Abuse Order

    My question involves restraining orders in the State of: PA

    Hi All,

    A while back, my ex petitioned for a Protection from Abuse (PFA) order protecting her and our daughter. She was granted several temporary's as psycho evals and custody evals took place. The custody evaluator determined I should have Primary Physical Custody. While the temp PFA was active I subsequently filed a Petition to Modify Custody.

    After a consolidated hearing (PFA & Custody) in front of a Judge, the Judge denied and dismissed with prejudice my ex's petition and subsequently awarded primary physical custody to me.

    I understand that PA Chapter 53 (Child Custody ) Section 39 allows for the awarding of fees. With that said I have heard that fees are not allowed to be awarded due my ex filing the Protection Order.

    I am looking for legal methods of obtaining financial relief from a Protection Petition that was filed in bad faith and from the Custody Actions.

    Thank you

    If you have a lawyer, you can talk to your lawyer about whether you have any chance of succeeding in a petition for sanctions. If you don't have a lawyer, what is it that you hope to recover?
