Sexual Violence Injunctions and Restraining Orders

You deserve to live free of fear!

A Sexual Violence injunction is an immediate means of protection for victims of sex crimes. The petition is processed in the same manner as repeat violence injunctions.

Any person who is the victim of sexual violence, or the parent or legal guardian of a minor child who is the victim of sexual violence, may seek an injunction to protect against sexual violence.

This injunction is intended to provide protection for anyone, including a minor, who has been victimized by an act of sexual violence; but is not involved in a domestic or dating relationship with the perpetrator.

“Sexual violence” is defined as at leas one incident of sexual battery; a lewd or lascivious act committed upon, or in the presence of, a person younger than 16; luring or enticing a child’s sexual performance; or any other forcible felony where a sexual act is committed or attempted.

A person who is the victim of an act of sexual violence, or the parent or legal guardian of a minor child living at home who is the victim of an act of sexual violence, has standing to seek the injunction. You must have reported the incident to law enforcement and be cooperating in any criminal proceeding.
