Legal Question in Criminal Law in Colorado

Comes to court putting me in violation of a PRO ?

This person has a Permanent Restraining Order me. I Consented to this not knowing the implications of it as I was Incarcerated and didn't know it was such a big deal. This person also has a Harrasment charge against me in District court. The harassment charge is tied together with a possesion of a controled substance charge for which I was out on bond. I went to my arrraignment to answer the bond and plea not guilty to the charges. I open the court doors and immediately see her. I cannot knowingly be within 100 yards of her. And if I dont stay I will forfeit my bond and an arrest will more than likely be issued. I have already been to jail twice and bonded out. So I left went across the street and called the court. The clerk in courtroom 13 told me the case had not been called yet and I should come to court. I told her my dilemma and she gave the same reply. I asked her if I could s[peak to the judge and she replied, no. When I called back an hour later my Public Defender had done nothing and an arrest warrant has been issued. the PRO was issued for the harrasment. I want to plead not guilty. She is being coached by the DA while I get No help. Can anyone tell how to proceed against this state assisted persecution.
