What is an Intervention Order?
Intervention orders are court rulings issued to prevent behaviours considered to be threatening, abusive or harmful, protecting the well-being of the affected individual.
Two types of Orders can be issued:
Family Violence Intervention Order – Designed to protect from a family member whose behaviour is considered threatening, abusive, or harmful, preventing any sort of contact.
Personal Safety Intervention Order – Designed to protect against individuals who are not family members, who may harass, stalk, or use threatening behaviours. Respondents will be limited in what they can do and prevented from contact.
