Legal Question in Criminal Law in California
My roommate is trying to filed a restraining order on me, for something i told her i did but i didn't actually do, i just said it to get back at her for what she said to me. will this be on my record and will the judge actually file one on me?

If she files a petition, a hearing will be set and you will have a chance to tell the judge your side.
Good luck
It's impossible to say what will happen without knowing the facts. Your roommate might get the order she seeks. If she wins, the order will haunt you for years to come. It will come up in background checks, making it harder to get a job or a place to live. Many people run background checks on potential romantic partners, so the order could cost you a great relationship -- or several.
You need to defeat the petition, and the best way to do that is by getting a lawyer who knows how to do it.
