Once you have the order, the person named in it must follow its conditions. If your partner doesn’t, they’re breaking the law. This means that with a “no contact” condition in place, your partner can’t contact you even if you want them to (unless a judge changes the protection order). If, for example, you invite your partner to meet with you, they may be arrested. (However, you can’t be charged with a crime for contacting them because the order wasn’t made against you — it’s for your protection.)
What if I want to see or talk to my partner after the order is in place?
