No. Fortunately, for some of us, being ugly is not illegal and therefore cannot be the subject of a restraining order. An ugly person cannot be restrained from coming withing a certain distance of you nor can that person be restrained from being ugly any more.


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.


What if you cant avoid someone you hate?

Your husband cheated on you with one of his friends girlfriends they were separated she says anyhow she is harassing us and her ultrasound she just had is to the day she was with your husband in her?

I really don't know what you are asking. If you think that the child might be your husbands, then you need to have a DNA test done after the baby is born. If she keeps on harassing you, then you might need to get a restraining order out on her. You and your husband should also go to counseling. Good luck and God Bless:)


Can you file restraining order against a person who filed against you?

You can file for it, but you have to convince a judge to agree with you. However, if the person you are restrained from is seeking you out and/or harassing you, you absolutely need to contact the court for advice. But if you simply want to file a restraining order against them just because they filed one against you, you won't convince the judge.
