In most counties in the US, this is already law. But not in Marion County, Indiana. In order to get a protective order, you must prove that you are scared of the person you are filing it against. You're not scared, obviously, if you are contacting the person repeatedly after petitionIng the court for protection. It's contempt every where else, as it should be. Please help me make this a nationwide law so I can help protect domestic violence victims like myself.
