A DC Superior Court judge granted four of the stay away order requests on June 23.
All four defendants are required to keep a 100-foot distance from their complainant’s home, school, workplace and vehicle. The defendants are also prohibited from contacting their complainant via telephone, social media or through a third party.
However, in one case, Judge Judith Pipe made some exceptions to accommodate co-parenting.
Three of the cases involved a defendant who repeatedly tried to approach or contact a complainant. The other case involved an assault.
All four stay away orders are temporary and the complainant must come back to court on Aug 25. with evidence to back their claims.
