This just happened to me. My lawyer said call the police. The police filed a report but unless the messages are threatening they said there is nothing they can do. Unless the texts keep coming too, he said 30 or more a week that would also justify calling them back to file another report.

The answer will depend on the specifics of the order and the statutes in your state. However, in most states, a restraining order (more accurately called a "an order of protection") is a court order which can only be altered under the authorization of a judge. Neither the protected party or the restrained party are permitted to interpret or alter or ignore any provision of the order.Therefore, if a no contact order is issued, and the protected party invites the restrained party over for a quick chat "just to sort things out" both parties are in violation and , in some states if it is a DV related order, both parties MUST be arrested for violation of the court order.
