In question-and-answer format, this resource explains the criteria for getting a peace bond or a restraining order, the difference between them, how to apply for one, the conditions the court may impose on the other person, and the consequences of disobeying the order. Note: Although this booklet was published by a New Brunswick organization, the information in it applies across Canada.
