Apprehended Violence Orders
Apprehended Violence Orders, usually referred to as AVO's, are Orders made under Part 15A of the Crimes Act 1900.
An AVO offers protection from domestic violence in NSW. An AVO offers protection against Acts of violence such as
the following: physical assault, non-physical abuse such as harassment or intimidation, damage or threatened
damage to property. The purpose of an AVO is to protect the victim. The Order itself, although registered on a Police
computer, is not a criminal record like a conviction for, say, assault.
Apprehended Violence Order
Sometimes, a court grants an apprehended violence order (AVO) to a person who
fears violence or harassment from their harasser.
A court can issue an apprehended violence order if it believes, on the balance of probabilities, that a person has reasonable
grounds to fear personal violence, harassing conduct, molestation, intimidation, or stalking.
If a defendant
knowingly contravenes a prohibition or restriction specified in the order, he or she can be subject to a fine, imprisonment, or both.
Many states have injunction laws that are written specifically to stop domestic violence, stalking, sexual assault or harassment
and these are commonly
called restraining orders, orders of protection, abuse prevention orders, or protective orders
