(Applying) Non-Molestation FAQ's
A Non-Molestation Order is available to individuals who have been subjected to harassment, threats, or violence by a partner, ex-partner, family member, or someone they share a child with.
It legally prevents the respondent from harassing, threatening, or coming near you. Breaching the order is a criminal offense and can lead to arrest.
In urgent cases, you may obtain an emergency order within 24 hours. Otherwise, the process usually takes a few weeks, depending on the court’s schedule.
You can apply without notifying the other person (known as a ‘without notice’ or ex-parte application). The court will then arrange a later hearing where both parties can present their case.
You should provide witness statements, text messages, emails, police reports, or any other evidence demonstrating harassment or abuse.
The court typically grants an order for six months to a year, but it can be extended if needed.
