Temporary Injunction Court Preparation
Summary
In a temporary injunction hearing for domestic violence, expect the judge to ask about the incident details, your relationship with the petitioner, and any evidence you have, such as photos or witness statements. Be prepared for the petitioner to challenge your statements. The judge will evaluate all testimonies and evidence, considering the childs best interests. If the injunction is upheld, it may involve restrictions like no contact with the petitioner and potential limits on child visitation. Present text messages and evidence of being the primary caregiver to challenge the petitioners claims. Stay calm, clear, and focused during the hearing.Full Conversation
I have a photo of where the petitioner grabbed my hand and dug his nails in, but the picture isnt very good. I do have a witness who saw the injury not long after it happened, and she may be able to join me for the court session. Will the judge ask me for my version of events? And what if the petitioner says im lying? He filed a police report after it happened, nothing came of it. I didnt get arrested or spoken to by the police at all. We did talk with dcf but they closed the case determining that the child was safe in my care. What do i need to prepare for?
Preparing for your court hearing involves several steps:
- Your Version of Events: The judge will likely ask for your account. Be clear, concise, and truthful.
- Petitioner's Claims: If the petitioner accuses you of lying, remain calm and present your evidence, such as the photo and witness testimony.
- Documentation: Bring all relevant evidence, including any DCF documents and the witness, if possible.
- Behavior: Stay respectful, calm, and focused during the session.

Does my witness need to take the stand or can she be in the court room and just write a witness statement of the injury? If she can write a statement, can it be on regular paper and how to go about signing it?
In Florida, your witness can submit a written statement, but it's often more impactful for them to testify in person. If she writes a statement:
- Use regular paper.
- Include her full name, date, and details of the incident.
- Sign and date the document.
- Notarize it if possible.

Tuesday Jason stayed the night as we had agreed upon, and he spent the whole day with esmae. It went very well, he suggested we watch an episode of the TV show we watch together, and then he fell asleep in bed next to me. The next day, he was supposed to stay until esmaes bedtime. I left for lunch with a friend, brought him back tacos, and that's when he told me he was going to leave. I was confused, he just seemed aggravated to be around me. I said it was his day with her that we agreed on it. He called his grandparents and told them I wasn't letting him leave and his grandpa said to call the cops and I scoffed bc I was just sitting And he ended up hanging the phone up tossing it to the couch and walking into my room and I followed, holding his phone I was asking why he was leaving and he said he didn't have to explain himself and I couldn't keep him there I was crying and confused.

If the injunction is upheld, what does that mean for me

What if the child is in my care because im the primary parent, ive enrolled her and pay for her school, and the petitioner hasnt visted her in * weeks? He claims to be afriad of me or need a restriction order, but i also have texts messages of him trying to come over and talk with me about the kids the same week he filed the injunction
Case Rating: *
In your situation, the judge will consider the best interests of the child, including your role as the primary caregiver. You can present the text messages as evidence to challenge the petitioner's claims. If the injunction affects custody, the court might still allow arrangements for you to continue caring for your child.
