Be careful since a TRO is an order from a judge which only a judge can cancel. Your girlfriend does not have legal authority to lift it. If you are caught there be for a judge dismisses it in writing, you will probably be arrested. You would benefit from legal representation either way but especially if she wants to lift it, since an experienced local lawyer could get the dismissal processed much faster.

Answering this question does not make me your attorney, but you can reach my office in Racine (262-633-3090 or [email protected]) for clarifications or to make further arrangements.
