so an order of protection is used when

we are filing on behalf of either

one of the

parents or one of the spouses

or if we’re filing on behalf of the

parents on behalf of the child and the

standard is whether or not

the

the child’s parent or the child

is at risk for physical or mental harm

by the person against whom we are filing

so it’s used either against the other

person

on behalf of the person themselves

or against a third party for example a

child or if you’re a guardian for

someone who’s elderly uh you can file a

restraining order for their behalf so

anybody who you have dominion and

control over

who is at a threat for physical or

mental abuse

by the party we’re filing against
