Syllabus

A district court may enter a protection order when there has been a showing of actual or imminent domestic violence. A district court's finding of domestic violence is a finding of fact that will not be overturned unless it is clearly erroneous. Domestic violence protection orders are civil in nature and governed by N.D.C.C. ch. 14-07.1. Criminal justification defenses under N.D.C.C. § 12.1-05-06 do not apply to civil domestic violence protection order proceedings.
