I no longer wish to pursue the personal protection order (PPO) application which I filed against my family member. Can I withdraw the application?

If you no longer wish to pursue the case, you can withdraw the application by informing the court at the court mentions. Once the court gives you permission to withdraw your case, your case will end.


However, if you wish to apply for another PPO in the future, you cannot rely on the same incidents or facts which you have used to support the earlier PPO application which has been withdrawn.

For more information, you may visit https://www.judiciary.gov.sg/family/apply-personal-protection-order and refer to the various guides available under "Resources" at the bottom of the page.
