Civil Harassment Restraining Orders

Unlike Domestic Violence Restraining Orders, there is no relationship requirement for seeking a Civil Harassment Restraining Order (CHRO).

California law defines harassment as “unlawful violence, a credible threat of violence, or a knowing and willful course of conduct directed at a specific person that seriously alarms, annoys, or harasses the person, that serves no legitimate purpose.”  (Cal. CCP Section 527.6)
