Victims of Family Violence
Family violence can involve domestic violence or abuse between individuals in familial or nonfamilial relationships. Most often, we think of violence between a husband and wife, but family violence, as defined by Texas statute, can involve actions between the following individuals:- Those in a dating relationship (this may be considered "dating violence")
- Parent and child
- Brother and sister
- Other household members
- Restraining orders - To seek a restraining order in Texas, the alleged victim must provide specific reasons and examples of the type of behavior or actions that need to be restrained. In certain divorce cases, a restraining order may be issued automatically.
- Protective orders - A protective order prohibits certain actions by an aggressor of family violence. Usually, it prohibits the aggressor from being in proximity of the victim's house, workplace or children. A protective order is criminally enforceable.
