Protective orders.

Summary

The bill allows courts to issue restraining orders that block a defendant from contacting not only the victim but also any family or household members when there is evidence the defendant committed a violent crime. It also lets courts order law‑enforcement protection, ban the defendant from possessing firearms, and require electronic monitoring in some cases. Violating any of these orders can be punished as a crime or as contempt of court.
