  9. City takes steps to protect victims of domestic violence

    It takes incredible courage for a victim of domestic violence to apply for a protective order. Victims must make their way to the courthouse, often while they are still experiencing the effects of their abuse. At the courthouse, they must write a description of how they were abused, and then describe their abuse again to a judge, often in front of a courtroom filled with strangers. If the judge determines that there has been abuse, the judge will issue a temporary protective order that must be served by a law enforcement officer on the alleged abuser. Most of us do not realize, however, that until the temporary protective order is served on the abuser, these victims' cases cannot move forward to a final hearing. Victims remain in a place of limbo, returning to court again and again to renew temporary orders that provide only partial relief.
