Did you have an attorney to assist in filing the latest restraining order or did you attempt to get it on your own? Do you have an attorney for the trial? Is it for visitation and custody or something else? How long do you have to wait to be heard?

How old are the kids? If there is a suspicion of abuse while they are in his care, have you gotten them into counseling? Have you talked to a domestic violence counselor? I would describe his behavior as a form of stalking; you need to determine how this is handled in your community. In my community there is a office that assists victims of domestic violence as well as an agency that provides parenting classes and other assistance.

For problems with extreme behavior by the ex, you need professional help.
