No such thing as restraining orders in PA.
I was reading a thread, and an announcement on this board, and in both, I saw two incidents where something was referred to as a "restraining order." I then did a search on the forum, and found numerous others where a "restraining order" was referred to in reference to domestic violence incidents and other harassment.
Pennsylvania does not have "restraining orders." The only legal document that almost matches the same description is a "Protection from Abuse Order" (henceforth PFA) A PFA can be issued by the courts in domestic violence situations, and there are penalties for violation of these orders.
I hope this helps.
