Laws vary from state to state, but the parent or guardian of a minor usually has the authority to act on his or her behalf. Temporary restraining orders or injunctions aren't that hard to obtain, but you have to have grounds to file for one, such as a discernable threat or imminent danger.

Yes. Fill it out at your court clerks office and it will be served on them before they get out. That way it will be illegal for them to contact you upon release. If you are the victim, and the reason they are in jail, then most states have a victim liaison at the court. Ask you court clerk to have them help you.

Can you be married to a person if you have a restraining order against them for making threats against you and your loved ones in the past?

If you have a restraining order on someone, it is voided as soon as you let them near you. If you meant can you marry someone after you put the restraining order on them. Yes, that's up to you. A restraining order means no proximity or contact of any kind between you two. How would you marry him, unless the restraining order is lifted? A restraining order IS NOT automatically lifted when you allow the restrained person near you. I hate BAD legal advice!! Only a court can lift or remove the Order. It depends on the state issuing the restraining order. The state I live in if the person who obtains the order violates it themselves the order becomes null once the person who the order is against informs the court of the contact. Also, if the person has allowed the order themselves to be violated, by allowing contact from the restrained person, again the order becomes null once the court is contacted. What good is a restraining order in these cases? Just another way for the abuser to keep control; as I see it. It is entirely up to you to stay married to this person. From first hand experience, the order is not null and void. If the person holding the order decides to file charges, the other could get charged with Interfering with Judicial Proceedings. It does not matter if the contact was consented. The fact remains that an order by the court was not followed and therefore prosecutable. I found out the hard way. My N abuser filed an order to worm his way out of assault charges. What I thought was a positive step for a healthy relationship, going to counceling, was just his way of a payback for having him arrested when he hit me. The only way to protect the person whom the order is against is to go to court and have the judge lift said order.
