.........Protected Persons
2 Cards On This Topic:

Because noncustodial F was not a protected person under the DVPA, trial court was not authorized to grant him TRO against stepfather just because he included C in the petition as a protected person.

Trial court lacked authority to issue protective order barring D from having contact with son and stepdaughter, as they were not "victims" of DV against mother per PC 136.2(i)(1) and PC 273.5(j).
