In this explainer video, I discuss the key aspects of Oregon family court restraining orders in instances of domestic violence, which are known as FAPA orders (Family Abuse Prevention Act orders). I discuss the legal showing one must make in order to obtain the order, and how the order is limited to family and household members.
