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.

How do you vacate a restraining order?

Most restraining orders are set to automatically expire after a specific time period. (ex: 30 days, 90 days, one year, etc.) If you want the Court to terminate a restraining order BEFORE that specified date, you must Petition the Court that granted it for an Order to Terminate. The Clerk of whatever Court issued the Restraining Order can help you with the required paperwork if you don't have an attorney. Remember though, once a Court issues a Restraining Order, it is rather reluctant to terminate it before the date contained within the order. Courts don't like to waste judicial time with people changing their minds.
