They are different in different states and depending on what if it is for an adult or child and what the reason they need to stay away. In a lot of states it is typically 100-300 yrds. Sometimes it is 1000 ft. But it will most likely be something in that range.

The distance for most restraining orders typically varies depending on the specific terms set by the court. It can range from 100 feet to 500 feet or more, and may include locations like the individual's home, workplace, or children's school. It's essential to follow the exact distance outlined in the restraining order to avoid legal consequences.

∙ 9y agoAre you asking about the distance IN FEET you must stay away from the person, or are you asking how far does the order carry effectiveness (i.e.- from state-to-state)?
The "keep away" distance should be specified in the court order itself. In my experience the usual distance is 500 feet, although the judge can vary it depending upon circumstances (e.g.: you are neighbors, or work in the same office, or attend the same school, etc.)
Court orders will be honored from state-to-state and a restraining order issued by one jurisdiction is honored by all others.
