Family offense petitions are governed by the New York law known as the Family Court Act. This law provides that an Order of Protection can be sought by members of the same family, and by parties who have a common child, in the New York State Family Court. There are two types of protective orders: Refrain From orders and Stay Away orders.

Refrain From Orders & Stay Away Orders of Protection

A Refrain From Order of Protection will protect from certain offending and dangerous behavior that puts the party at risk of emotional and physical harm. A Stay Away Order of protections protects the party who obtains the Order from any contact by the party who is ordered to Stay Away.
