Legal Question in Family Law in California

My husband got a restraining order on me for domestic violence. Will that prevent me from being able to go after spousal support in our divorce proceedings? I've been told by 2 attorney's that I will not get spousal support because of the restraining order. Is this true legally or will it be up to the judge's discretion?
