Frequently Asked Questions
Colorado Protection Orders
Q: I was served with a Restraining Order. What should I do first?
A: Read the Order carefully and comply with it fully. Even actions that seem minor may be violations. Then, contact an attorney immediately to discuss your defense.
Q: Can I email, text, or call the protected party?
A: No. If your Order says “no contact,” any communication—including email, text, phone calls, or social media—is a violation and could result in criminal charges.
Q: Can I return to the home we share to get my belongings?
A: No; if the protected party also lives there or is likely to be found there. In most instances you can request a one-time, police-supervised visit to retrieve essentials. Contact the non-emergency police department where the home is located.
Q: What if the protected party contacts me first?
A: The Order applies only to you. If contact is prohibited and you respond you will be in violation. If they reach out, do not reply, hang up, walk away, and document the attempt.
