How To Get a Restraining Order in Colorado
To get a restraining order in Colorado, you will need to:
- File for a temporary restraining order (TRO). The TRO lasts up to 14 days and includes the date and time of your permanent hearing, which would make the restraining order permanent.
- Return to court on the date indicated on the TRO for the court to issue a permanent restraining order (PRO). If you do not attend the hearing, the TRO will expire. Once you obtain a PRO, the length of the PRO is at the discretion of the judge.
What Proof Do You Need for a Restraining Order?
You can use the following proof to show harm in Colorado:
- Your testimony that the respondent harmed you
- Testimony from any witnesses, such as a family member, who saw the respondent harm you
- A police report that documents physical harm you sustained
- Medical records reflecting treatment harm done
