Nothing will happen to the "victim" The "victim" is calling the "abuser" to trick him into violating the restraining order so she can have him arrested again.

Restraining orders do not protect defendants/suspects; they protect victims. This means she can't violate it, but you can. Don't fall into this trap. Violation of a CLETS is a felony.

Contact me directly if you need representation.

Best of Luck.
