Effect of TRO On Appearance In Court

Hello,

I am about to file suit in Small Claims against a party that has a temporary restraining order of a significant duration against me. This does not preclude me from appearing in court and presenting my case does it?

Thank You

No. There's no restriction to you appearing in court. That's why there's a guy/gal there with a gun.
