Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Can a Defendant modify a restraining order in NJ?

In the RO the judge said my lawyer and the other party's lawyer are to arrange visitation so I can see my son. It has been over 10 weeks, and I have yet to see him. Can I file a motion (I no longer want to be represented by my lawyer) so a judge can grant visitation? It doesn't matter to me if it's supervised, as long as I can see him. And if I can file this motion and do not request an oral argument, how likey would it be for the judge to grant me visitation?

You can file a motion to revise visitation with your children. I would be glad to be of help.
