Denver Domestic Violence Lawyer
Violation of Protective Order/Restraining Order
Protective orders, or restraining orders, are one of the few legal actions that can be done ex parte, or with only one of the parties being present. Courts are required to issue mandatory restraining orders in all domestic violence cases in Colorado and violations of the protective order can carry severe consequences, including mandatory consecutive time on any jail sentence imposed for a violation. It does not take much to violate a restraining order and many cases are filed for simple technical violations without any threats or harassment of any sort. Restraining order violations are often charged solely on the say so of the protected party.
These types of offenses are usually a class one misdemeanor and can be used as leverage by the prosecution if there is a pending case. Additionally, judges tend to treat these cases more harshly because they do not like to see individuals disregarding a court order. If you have been charged with violating a protective order, you should immediately contact our office to speak with a criminal defense attorney in Denver with experience handling these types of domestic violence charges.
