what happens if the victim violates the order of protection

Sagot :

Answer:

In Indiana, according to Indiana Code 35-46-1-15.1 violating a protective order involving a domestic or family violence case is a Class A misdemeanor. If the courts find you guilty, you could face up to a year in county jail and/or a fine of up to $5,000, in addition to probation.

Explanation:

A no contact order is typically imposed in cases where there is an alleged "victim" of the crime. Also, alleged "victims" can request that the no contact order be removed. Violating the terms of a no contact order can result in your bail being forfeited, and you may also be held in contempt of court.
