In Re Shirley

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• holding \consent of the petitioner does not bar a conviction of criminal contempt for violation of a [civil protection order]\
• noting that the legislative body recognized that the public has an interest in preventing the intrafamily violence that CPOs are intended to prevent and consent of a protected person to contact does not prevent intrafamily violence
• considering similar CPO language to conclude that purported consent of the protected person for contact with the restrained person could not modify the CPO to excuse the alleged contact
• protective order is an order of the court, not the victim
