Could anyone here help me out with dealing with a restraining order?
I (very) recently got into a fight with my (now) ex boyfriend. The fight ended with enough physical abuse to get me a restraining order against him.
I went to court to get the RA extended and thankfully the judge extended it for a year.
While I was in court though he was trying to get into my line of vision and he knew that I was going to be going to the house to get my things. He filed a no tresspass order against me so I had to have a police officer walk through with me. I don't have a lot of belongings, and certainly nothing of much value other than my art supplies. The Officer (a female, thankfully! She was sweet!) had to bring things out to his truck for him to say it was ok for me to take!! It was awful! Then he said I couldnt take MY art supplies because his roommates kids use them! This is Abuse right?? Now I have to keep going back to the house with an Officer Until HE clears MY stuff to be taken....
I don't know how to stay strong in this......

" I don't know how to work it differently, but I guess the best advice I can give is to keep going back as often as you have to for the stuff you need (remember, it will piss him off as much as it does you), and leave anything you can do without because it just isn't worth the angst. "
