Order Of Protection

Any person who violates an order of protection in Illinois will likely face Class A misdemeanor charges. The punishment can include up to one year in jail and a $2,500 fine. The court may also sentence the defendant to probation, counseling, and community service. If the offender was not served, the judge will reschedule the hearing for another day. If that happens and you have an emergency order, the order will be extended until the date of the next hearing. How long will the plenary order last? A plenary protective order can last up to two years. #Order Of Protection,
