Legal Question in Family Law in California

If a restraining order is issued against me what rights do I have?

If I am at a resturant or other establishment and the person who issues the restaining order against me enters the establishment, do I have to leave? Could I be arrested if I find myself in the same establishment as she is, for example, Disneyland or a shopping mall or concert venue? Will I have to leave or do I have the right to stay there since I was there first?

Thank You

depends on the wording of the order. if it is an accidental meeting you must leave. if they are following you then you have grounds to modify or cancel the order.
