Restraining order hearing?
A temporary protection order against me was served to my family's house where i used to live but have since moved. My brother had sent me a text saying that summons had been dropped off but no other information. I contacted the person who had filed against me via text asking what the paperwork was, I thought she was pressing charges due to a drunken voicemail I had left the week before. She explained to me, via text, that it was a temporary restraining order not a summons. I ceased communication with her and haven't contacted her since. I went to my parents house to pick up the paperwork the following day and read the order stating not to contact her. The hearing to decide if a permanent order will be issued is in a week. I wish to present myself in court as I am not a threat and do not wish to do the plaintiff any harm and I would like to prevent this from being on my public record. I am afraid that she will say I violated the TPO when I texted her to spite me for attending court and contesting. Is she able to do that? Am I in violation?
