No contact order; The officer called it a "temporary no contact order"
My daughters dad filed a no contact order on me and said stuff on there that I did not do. The officer called it a "temporary no contact order" until our court date coming up. He has been contacting me since he filed the no contact order,idk if there will be any consequences for him since he contacted me or just me because I replied? I have tried nothing. But he filed false charges with the no contact order saying I abused him and his daughter when I never did and said I threatened him and his daughter when I never did.. I have no money for a attorney but he has one so idk what to do.. He abused me but I didn't say anything.. We go to court Friday that's when I can defend myself but idk if it'll matter because he has a attorney and I don't..

When you say that he contact you, and you replied - HOW did he contact you? Do you have proof that he initiated the contact? If so, because he initiated it, you MIGHT be able to use the excuse you were simply replying to the contact. However, because there is a No Contact order in force, you probably shouldn't have even responded at all.

A No Contact order applies to both parties regardless of who initiated it. It sounds like he might not know that and is trying to trip you up. I hope you have proof that he was contacting you after getting the NC order.

Re: No contact order; The officer called it a "temporary no contact order"
At the hearing give your FULL story including the history of his abuse and his violating his own restraining order he got. Temporary restraining order are just that -- temporary until there is a full hearing on the merits, whether there are sufficient grounds for it to have been entered in the first place and whether or not it should be made permanent.
The first thing you need to do when the hearing is called is inquire of the judge about the nature of the proceedings: Is this a civil matter or criminal? If criminal, then go no further by yourself. In most cases restraining orders are ordered for criminal conduct, misdemeanor or felony. In such a case, if the allegations amount to criminal, you are entitled to be represented by counsel. So DO NOT waive that right. If you cannot afford an attorney see Legal Aid. They may be able to appear for you and the playing field will at least be level. The judge should continue the hearing until such date as you can appear with an attorney representing you. |
