What it does
Existing law requires, in all cases in which a criminal defendant has been convicted of a crime involving domestic violence, as defined, or one of specified sex offenses, the court to consider issuing an order, valid for up to 10 years, restraining the defendant from any contact with the victim. Existing law states the intent of the Legislature in enacting that provision that the duration of any restraining order issued by the court be based upon the seriousness of the facts before the court, the probability of future violations, and the safety of the victim and his or her immediate family.
