What can you do if the plaintiff violates a protective order?

There is not order against the plaintiff.. the plaintiff is the person who filed the order, he or she is not in violation of an order that they placed. Only the defendant can be in violation as the courts have ordered that person to have no contact with the plaintiff not vice versa.Another View: The Plaintiff MAY, in fact, be in violation of the court's order. If the respondant was ordered to maintain a certain distance from the plaintiff, or stay away from the plaintiff's residence and place of work, or was ordered not to have any contact with the plaintiff,. . . AND THEN. . . the plaintiff wilfully violates the same order they petitioned for, the court can find them in violation of the order and they are in contempt of court.
