After the petition is filed, you will see a judge who may award you a temporary protective order before a set hearing. The hearing will take place within thirty (30) days after filing your petition. At the hearing, the judge will hear both your statement and the statement of the accused party and will then decide whether to grant a Temporary Protective Order and for how long, up to twelve (12) months.
