Order Of Protection Guidance

Summary

In Arizona, an order of protection doesnt mean you lose personal belongings. You can request a law enforcement escort or petition the court to amend the order to retrieve items. If the order states belongings cant be disposed of, document any violations and report them. Unauthorized sale of property, like a car, can be considered theft and should be reported to the police. Consult a lawyer for civil remedies.

Hello Carlos, it's unfortunate you're going through this. In Arizona, an order of protection doesn't necessarily mean you lose your personal belongings.
- You can request a law enforcement escort to retrieve your belongings.
- You may also petition the court to amend the order to allow you to retrieve your personal items.
- Always ensure you're not violating the order during this process.
What if the order of protection states that she cannot get rid of my belongings?
If the order of protection in Arizona specifies she can't dispose of your belongings, then she must comply. If she violates this:
- Document the violation.
- Report it to local law enforcement.
- Consider legal action for contempt of the protection order.
She also went into my room and took the title to my car and sold it to the junk yard
I'm sorry to hear that, Carlos. If she sold your car without your consent, it could be considered theft. You should:
- Report this to the police immediately.
- Also consider contacting a lawyer to discuss potential civil remedies.
