Notice – Family – Revised Packet – How to Enforce or Request a Change of a Domestic Violence Restraining Order (CN 12093)

This Notice announces the issuance of a revised version of the self-help packet "How to Enforce or Request a Change of Domestic Violence Restraining Order" (CN 12093). The packet previously covered both Domestic Violence (DV) cases and Sexual Assault Survivor Protection Act (SASPA) cases. With the enactment of the Victims Assistance and Survivor Protection Act (VASPA) (superseding SASPA), a dedicated VASPA-specific packet was created and promulgated by Directive #23-23. 

To ensure clarity and compliance with current statutes and procedures, CN 12093 has been revised to eliminate all references to SASPA. Effective immediately, it now is intended exclusively for domestic violence restraining order matters, not those cases involving VASPA. For matters arising under VASPA, please see the dedicated VASPApacket (CN 13142) as promulgated by Directive #23-23.
