Q:     How to obtain a ” Bench Warrant ” for a Violation of a restraining Order, since the assistant state attorney refuses to press charges? The violation is a contact through online website , publicly violating a no contact order not once, but several attempts.

A:  

Locally licensed lawyer

For questions involving state laws, lawyers who are licensed in the same state as the asker are often able to provide more relevant answers than out-of-state lawyers.

For questions involving federal laws (e.g., immigration or patents), this distinction is unimportant.

Answered . First off, bench warrants are issue by judges not state attorneys.

Secondly, a violation of a restraining order should be reported to the police. They should follow up with either an arrest or a report which will then be filed with the state attorneys office.

Third you, presumably a civilian (who apparently thinks but does not know the logistics of what s/he is talking about) should not be pressing this matter, rather you should have an experienced lawyer doing this for you, albeit at your direction and in your interests.

Florida provides both a constitutional and a statutory provision for victim’s rights. As a victim you are entitled to certain “rights” and, while you cannot “direct” the state or the court to take action as you see fit, a trained and skilled lawyer may be able to use the constitutional and statutory protections which are afforded to you to meet your objective. (It is also possible that, after becoming intimately associated with the facts and circumstances of your situation, an experienced lawyer will tell you what you have already been told by the state, but again, that is just speculation.)

My advise: If you are afraid call the police and generate a police report. Make sure to document the contact and to have proof of the Restraining Order / injunction handy. Then consider hiring a 305 area criminal defense attorney to assist you. I have successfully served in this capacity on many occasions and know that if the facts and circumstances justify it then you have a right to seek justice.

I hope this has been helpful and wish you the best of luck!

Once posted you lose any reasonable expectation of privacy, so, as this is an open forum (with no privilege attached), please be extra careful when considering what to post online (forewarned is forearmed.)

For more than a quarter of a century I have striven to make Michael A. Haber, P.A. a business that custom tailors its services to meet the needs of the client. This incorporates such things as (but is not limited to) doing my best to meet clients at their convenience (as opposed to mine), in locations and at times which are mutually convenient (sometimes at their homes, places of business, independent ground - having free wifi and excellent coffee any Dunkin Donuts always works for me - and occasionally even at odd hours), structuring fees to reasonably accommodate the parties, making myself personally available to the client as close to 24/7 as is possible and, perhaps most importantly, giving careful and comprehensive consideration to both micro and macro issues in a given case so as to be able to agree upon and effort toward a viable litigation objective.
