Depending on the types of application applied for and the orders that the court deem fit to issue, the court can make the orders below:
• PPO - an order restraining the respondent from committing family violence against the protected person.

• Domestic Exclusion Order – an order excluding or restricting the respondent from entering all or part of the protected person’s residence.

• Stay Away Order – an order prohibiting the respondent from entering or remaining in areas frequented by the protected person, e.g., void deck of the protected person’s residence, or workplace.

• No Contact Order – an order prohibiting the respondent from visiting or communicating with the protected person.

• Counselling Order – an order referring the protected person and/or the respondent to counselling conducted at an agency assigned by the Protector.

• Mandatory Treatment Order – an order requiring the respondent (who is suffering from a treatable psychiatric condition which contributed towards the violent behaviour) to undergo psychiatric treatment.
