Tro Violation Legal Steps
Summary
In Hawaii, proving a TRO violation requires evidence of intent or knowledge. Despite the respondent signing the TRO, prosecutors may need more proof. Consider gathering additional evidence like witness statements, surveillance footage, and communication records. Consulting a legal advisor can help explore further options, such as filing a motion for contempt or requesting a meeting with the prosecutor to discuss the case.Full Conversation
I have filed a report with the police. But the prosecutors don’t want to pursue her. As they can’t prove she didn’t know she wasn’t allowed to be there. How is that possible if an address and location is listed in the TRO she was served?
It's frustrating when a TRO violation isn't pursued. In Hawaii, the burden of proof lies with prosecutors to establish intent or knowledge of the violation. If the TRO clearly lists the location, it could be argued that the person should have known. Have you considered discussing this with a legal advisor for further action?
I have. But I would like to know why you think the prosecutor doesn’t want to pursue this knowing that the police arrested her and she clearly violated the TRO?
It's possible that the prosecutor might not pursue the case due to challenges in proving the violator's intent or knowledge of the restrictions, despite the clear listing in the TRO. They may feel there's insufficient evidence to demonstrate she knew she was violating the order. Consulting a legal advisor could help explore further options.
What can I do if the Hawai’i state prosecution office doesn’t want to prosecute the respondent who violated the terms of the TRO?
