What Happens If A Protection Order Is Sought

Once a petition is made (sometimes an emergency petition can be filed) to the courts, the order can go into effect immediately. Whether the allegation of abuse occurred or not is not determined at this time. The law provides immediate protection temporarily until the domestic violence issue is resolved. In Maryland, the order lasts for seven days. Once the seven days have passed, there is a hearing to determine whether the order needs to be permanent. The order can be extended up to a year.
