What protections can I get in a gun violence protective order?
In a gun violence protective order, the judge can order that the respondent not:
- own, purchase, have, receive, or transfer ownership of any firearm or ammunition;
- attempt to purchase, receive, or transfer ownership of any firearm or ammunition; and
- have any firearm or ammunition in his/her custody or control.1
After the order is issued, the respondent will have a chance to voluntarily give up his/her firearms or ammunition. If the judge believes that the respondent has firearms or ammunition that s/he has not given up, the judge can issue a search warrant so that law enforcement can remove the firearms or ammunition.2
