A restraining order is a Family Court order intended to help protect you or your children if you are concerned for your safety. The order can include conditions restricting where another person can go or whether they can contact or communicate with you or your children.
In Ontario, you may apply for a restraining order against a current or former spouse or partner you have lived with, or someone with whom you have a child. Applications are made through Family Court.
If you are concerned about someone who does not fall within those relationship circumstances, a peace bond may be another option. A peace bond is a separate court order that can impose conditions on a person when there are reasonable grounds to fear they may cause harm or injury, damage property, or share an intimate image without consent.
For information about applying for a restraining order or peace bond, visit the Ontario government’s information on restraining orders or the Ontario Court of Justice’s peace bond resources.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911.
