Ask the police why they didn’t agree and make a note of what you can do differently next time to get the protection you need. A victim service worker may be able to help you contact police to get more information in this situation. If possible, apply for a family law protection order right away.
If you want to try to apply for a peace bond on your own, you can talk to a lawyer or a justice of the peace at your nearest courthouse.
Stay connected to the police
Make sure the police have your current phone number, address, and email address, or the number of a contact person who can reach you. The police will try to let you know when your partner is released from custody.
Ask a victim service worker or court staff to help you get a copy of the release conditions, and keep the copy with you at all times. If your partner breaks any of the conditions, contact the police immediately by calling 911.
