Yes.
In order to initiate a lawsuit, the person must be given legal notice of the suit. In some cases, legal notice does not necessarily mean actual notice. If the person does not know about the lawsuit, they then might not know about any orders entered regarding that suit.

Will they ask questions as to why you want to terminate the restraining order what kind of questions will they ask will they come down hard on you what will happen in court with this issue.?
If the court has issued a restraining order against someone on your behalf - you can apply to have the order lifted. If the court asks why, you can always cite that you feel they have learned their lesson. HOWEVER - if the person then starts harassing you again - the court would want to know why you asked for the injunction to be lifted early. Best to let the order run its course - that way, they understand they are not to approach you for fear of going to prison.

Don't know what you mean by "official," but it is NEVER lawful. Bail is 'surety' (money or property) that a person will appear in court to answer charges. If the person fails to appear in court not only will the court issue a warrant for their arrest, but the bailbondsman will want to get him as well, in order to recover his 'surety' (his investment).
