Restraining orders prove their own irrelevance. If they work, it means they weren’t needed. If they don’t work, it means they are infective.

In either case, they are irrelevant and worthless.

Restraining orders are worse than worthless. My husband built a phoney case against me and got a restraining order that kept me 200 feet away from my home and my three small children, including our infant son, for 10 days, until I could get my case heard in court. Of course, the order was vacated, but he replaced it with a gag order where I was forbidden to tell my children anything about what had happened or why. During the ten days my three small children were cared for by his paramour. So in my case, a law that was supposed to protect the innocent and law abiding harmed those innocent and law abiding, my children and me, and yes, I realize that those poor souls who are physically harmed suffer more than I did.
