You can ask the court that made the order to vary it. In criminal court, Crown counsel must agree to the change and you must appear before the judge to explain why. In family court, the other person has to agree as well. If they don’t agree, it will be up to the judge to decide. In either court, the judge will have to agree that the other person (and if it’s your partner, any of your or your partner’s children) are no longer at risk of harm from you.
Talk to your lawyer, or duty counsel or registry staff at the courthouse about how to apply to court to change the order.
