Legal Question in Family Law in California

You need to at least talk to the family law facilitator regarding this matter so they can look over your existing orders and help you file new papers. You may be able to modify the family court order (a civil court restraining order), but there may also be a criminal restraining order that he is subject to. Your husband will have to look into what he needs to do to have that lifted if there is a criminal order granted for both you and the daughter. Assuming no criminal restraining order, and the family court feels it is in your daughter's best interests to alter the visitation order, it is not likely that you will be allowed to supervise visitation, since you were the victim in the DV case. If he has a family member or friend that you find acceptable to supervise (and is willing to do it), the judge may agree to this. I doubt any judge would order a visitation that requires an abuser and a victim to have contact like that, simply because the chances of another occurrence are just too great, and if it did occur, this would be traumatic for your daughter.
