S.F. _____ EXPLANATION 1 This bill relates to the issuance of and violations of civil 2 protective orders and criminal no-contact orders, and modifies 3 penalties. 4 Current law defines a no-contact order as a court order 5 issued in a criminal proceeding requiring a defendant to have 6 no contact with the alleged victim, persons residing with the 7 alleged victim, or members of the alleged victim’s immediate 8 family, and to refrain from harassing the alleged victim, 9 persons residing with the alleged victim, or members of the 10 alleged victim’s family. A protective order is defined as a 11 protective order issued pursuant to Code chapter 232 (juvenile 12 justice), a court order or court-approved consent agreement 13 entered pursuant to Code chapter 236 (civil domestic abuse), 14 including a valid foreign protective order, a temporary or 15 permanent protective order or order to vacate the homestead 16 under Code chapter 598 (dissolution of marriage and domestic 17 relations), an order that establishes conditions of release 18 or is a protective order or sentencing order in a criminal 19 prosecution arising from a domestic abuse assault (criminal 20 domestic abuse), or a civil injunction issued to restrain 21 harassment or intimidation of victims or witnesses in a 22 criminal case.
