I strongly recommend that you retain an attorney. If you would like me to recommend a criminal defense colleague and former prosecutor, please feel free to contact my office.
Get an attorney go to to the hearing with you to properly challenge the allegations against you. If there was a police report then there may also be criminal charges pending. The hearing is not to vacate the order, it's to see whether the order should be extended.
I concur with my colleagues. Lawyer up. This is not the kind of thing to monkey around with. Pay whatever it costs.
