1. What is a Sexual Assault Protection Order?

It is a court order issued to protect someone from alleged sexual abuse or assault. You may be served with one if the petitioner claims that you pose a threat or could cause harm.

2. Your Quick Response is Important

Being served with a protection order can cause anxiety, but you have legal rights and options. Responding on time and following standard court procedures helps ensure the judge hears your side of the story and allows you to defend yourself.
