ORDER OF PROTECTION DENIED! Attorney Aaron Levinson represented a respondent at a protection order hearing. The client reached out to her ex-fiancée to let him know her dog died and after he responded rudely, she sent him a series of upset messages. After the police took a report and determined that no crime had been committed, the ex filed for a protection order. He claimed that he needed a protection order because he was afraid she'd show up at his work or home. During cross-examination, the petitioner acknowledged that his last in-person contact with our client was more than 18 months ago, and that many instances of alleged harassment that he complained of were similarly old. We argued there was no evidence of an imminent threat of violence. Judge Schoborg agreed and denied the motion to grant the protection order!
