Instructions for Law Enforcement
Enforcing the Restraining Order
This Order is enforceable by any law enforcement agency that has received the Order, is shown a copy of the Order, or
has verified its existence on the California Restraining and Protective Order System (CARPOS). If the law enforcement
agency has not received proof of service on the restrained person, and the restrained person was not present at the court
hearing (see ), the agency must advise the restrained person of the terms of the Order and then must enforce it.
Violations of this Order are subject to criminal penalties.

Start Date and End Date of Orders
This Order starts on the date next to the judge’s signature on page 2 and ends on the expiration date in on page 1.4
Notice/Proof of Service
The law enforcement officer must first determine if the restrained person had notice of the Order. If notice cannot be
verified, the officer must advise the restrained person of the terms of the Order and then enforce it. (Fam. Code,
§ 6383(e).)
Consider the restrained person served (given notice) if:
The officer sees a copy of the Proof of Service or confirms that the Proof of Service is on file; or•
The restrained person was at the hearing or was informed of the order by an officer. An officer can obtain
information about the contents of the order and proof of service in CARPOS.
•
If more than one restraining order has been issued protecting the protected party from the restrained
person, the orders must be enforced in the following priority (see Pen. Code, § 136.2 and Fam. Code,
§§ 6383(h)(2), 6405(b)):
1. Emergency Protective Order (EPO): If one of the orders is an Emergency Protective Order (form EPO-001),
provisions (e.g., stay-away order) that are more restrictive than in the other restraining/protective orders must be
enforced. Provisions of another order that do not conflict with the EPO must also be enforced.
2. No-Contact Order: If a restraining/protective order includes a no-contact order, the no-contact order must be
enforced.
3. Criminal Protective Order (CPO): If none of the orders includes an EPO or a no-contact order, the most recent CPO
must be enforced. (Fam. Code, §§ 6383(h)(2), 6405(b).) Additionally, a CPO issued in a criminal case involving
charges of domestic violence, Penal Code section 261, 261.5, or former 262, or charges requiring sex offender
registration must be enforced over any civil court order. (Pen. Code, § 136.2(e)(2).) All provisions in the civil court
order that do not conflict with the CPO must also be enforced.
4. Civil Restraining Orders: If there is more than one civil restraining order (e.g., domestic violence, juvenile, elder
abuse, civil harassment, retail crime), then the order that was issued last must be enforced. Provisions that do not
conflict with the most recent civil restraining order must also be enforced.
