Is a restraining order the same as a legal separation?

No, they're very different things, though they might overlap in some cases. A restraining order is a court order restraining someone from doing some particular thing. That "thing" might be "coming within 300 feet of a particular other person." A legal separation is, basically, a kind of "trial divorce." It's a general feature that the people involved stop living together, but they don't necessarily have to go out of their way to avoid each other at work or school or whatever (in contrast, a restraining order DOES usually require that). The divorce laws vary considerably from state to state, and sometimes a period of legal separation is mandated before a divorce decree can be obtained.


Can the alienation of affection be filed while filing separation or divorce or should be filed after separation or divorce?

In some states Alienation is a grounds for divorce. It should be stated on the petition for divorce if your state requires a compelling reason to ask for divorce. If you happen to live in a no fault state, the issue of alienation is moot. In a no fault state you do not need a reason to get a divorce. In that case, your "reason" is not a consideration (legally that is). Make sure you find out if your state is no fault so that you will know how to proceed.
