(in the US) a minor cannot petition for a such an order. A parent or legal guardian would have to do it for them.

Does a restraining order override a child custody order?

If the restraining order pertains to the child or if not, otherwise modified, yes. Otherwise, no. Your personal issues with a parent and that parent's right to their child generally do not overlap unless otherwise stated by the court.


What would it be called when an ex keeps me from seeing my 16 yr old son we have 50 50 custody but he has a restraining order against me to keep me away which is causing mental issues for my son?

If the ex-boyfriend/girlfriend or ex-husband/wife has a custody order that you have agreed on legally, but has a restraining order against YOU, that does NOT apply to the child, and you have rights that are being trampled on. Assuming you have a lawyer, then a mediator should be used, perhaps a neutral relative, to meet you so you don't violate the restraining order. This issue of the custody should have been addressed when the restraining order was issued! Call the lawyer and ask advice on what to do, or call the court directly and inquire . If the restraining order INCLUDES your 16 year old child, then you must fight the restraining order, which IS your right to do. There should be a date when the restraining order will expire and therefore, a court date to extend it if the person who got it wants to extend it. That is your chance to show up and give cause as to why it SHOULD NOT be extended and also bring up the issue of shared custody.

After the court , if there isn't proof to substantiate the court can't enforce....
