What Is Domestic Violence

(Close Window)

Domestic violence is when two people get into an intimate relationship and one person uses a pattern of coercion and control against the other person during the relationship and/or after the relationship has terminated. It often includes physical, sexual, emotional or economic abuse.

What Is Sexual Assault

(Close Window)

Sexual violence is any sexual act that is perpetrated against someone's will. This encompasses a range of offenses, including a completed nonconsensual sex act (i. e. rape), an attempted nonconsensual sex act, abusive sexual contact and non-contact sexual abuse.

Protective Orders

(Close Window)

50(B)
50(B) is a Domestic Violence Protective Order also known as a Restraining Order. It is a legal order issued by a judge to protect a person from physical abuse or threatening behavior by another. It is granted in cases of domestic violence to protect the health and safety of you or your minor children by someone you have had a personal relationship with. This means you can seek protection from:

Your spouse or ex-spouse
A person of the opposite sex with whom you live or used to live
Someone you are related to, including parents, children, grandparents and grandchildren over the age of 16
Someone with whom you have a child in common
A current or former household member
Someone of the opposite sex whom you are dating or have dated

50(C)
A 50(C) is a Civil Non-Contact Order for stalking or Nonconsensual Sexual Conduct. It protects a person from unwanted sexual conduct or stalking by someone they do NOT have an intimate or familiar relationship with, like a stranger, neighbor, co-worker or an acquaintance.

If a judge finds evidence of the "unlawful conduct", the judge can order the abuser or stalker to stop and stay away from the victim.

There are two types of unlawful conduct:
Nonconsensual sexual conduct - Any intentional touching, fondling or sexual act (either directly or through your clothing) for the purpose of sexual gratification or arousal that the victim did not consent to.
Stalking - When someone repeatedly follows or harasses another with the intent to place the victim in reasonable fear for her/his safety or her/his immediate family's safety or to cause emotional distress (harm).
