[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the jurisdiction, but usually there are two stages - first a hearing for a temporary protective order. The standard of proof is pretty low. Her ex will need to explain why he thinks he needs the protective order, but it doesn't have to be beyond a reasonable doubt or anything. His evidence at that stage can consist of his testimony regarding things his kids have told him. If a temporary order is granted, a hearing on a permanent order will be set for about a week later. That has a higher burden of proof[/quote]
