Can someone that put a restraining order be in your home?

There are different types of restraining orders. Some have certain clauses in them that stipulate IF and WHEN a person is allowed to come to your home.. For example, in custody cases where there are children involved, the recipient of the restraining order may be allowed to come to the address on specific dates or times to pick up the child. IF the restraining order SPECIFIES THAT THE PERSON IS NOT ALLOWED TO COME WITHIN ____ AMOUNT OF FEET/YARDS. then that INCLUDES YOUR HOME, WORK, and ANYWHERE YOU ARE! You could be at a RESTAURANT and if the person that the restraining order is against shows up without knowing you are there, THEY HAVE TO LEAVE THE PREMISES. The restraining order should specify the PLACES the person is not allowed to be, INCLUDING your address. That should be right on the order. IF the person COMES TO YOUR HOUSE you MUST CALL THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY, because it is a felony to disobey a restraining order. Also, if you don't follow the restraining order and you allow the person to visit, the judge probably won't take you seriously when you file for an extension if the other person can prove that you have been calling THEM, contacting THEM, etc. YOU may find yourself with a restraining order and THAT is not good because then they can have you arrested for almost any reason. It also shows up on any computer of law enforcement that a restraining order has been issued against you, even years afterword.

Is a restraining order valid if it is served at the wrong address?

You'd have to discuss it with your lawyer. If it is an old address of yours, it would still count, but if it is an address you've never lived at it doesn't. If there's a spelling mistake it still counts. If the number is wrong, discuss it with your lawyer.
