D.C. vs. P.C. Shoptease
The court states at the outset that although the parties share custody of their children, the parenting plan is a 70/30 split, which when presented without context is troubling.
The defendant argues that there is no legal basis for issuing a 209a restraining order. Although the court claims that there is, the facts that they present in this opinion do not appear to be sufficient. There are claims of abuse in the past, but there is nothing that satisfies the imminent requirement of the order.
A.A. vs. M.J. White
Interesting case, a family matter that resulted in the issuance of a 209a restraining order. Although the court makes it clear that the lower court did find very poor behavior by the defendant, it is unclear that a reasonable person would find that the set of facts would justify a 209a restraining order. Certainly there was enough evidence for a 258E Harrasment order, as well contempt of court.
The defendant also raised the issue of the proceedings occurring via WebEx, the court simply pointed to Emergency Order 20-5 and 20-11 as justification. Hopefully these emergency orders get sorted out soon, at some point it is no longer an emergency, but a new way of doing business.
