Civil Restraining Orders are similar to Domestic Violence Restraining Orders, but are typically sought in non-domestic situations, meaning that there is no close relationship to the other party. If someone has harassed, threatened, assaulted, stalked, or physically harmed you, a Civil Restraining Order may be the tool to stop this behavior.
