Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

restraining order

My girlfriend has a restraining order against her ex-boyfriend. The ex-boyfriend called her 17yr old son today and said that he is allowed to call the boy and his sister. This does not seem right to me.

Is it legal in California for him to call the kids. He is not their father.

That depends upon what the restraining order says, as well as on the children's living arrangements. If they live with their father and the restraining order says nothing about contacting them, then the ex probably didn't violate it.
