The judge in the case ordered a restraining order to be filled out, one for me and one for him. The judge's reasoning was that this would keep him from running his mouth, which it did. Now I find myself unable to obtain a CCW permit because of my this. Anyone know how I can go about rectifying this situation? Suggestions?? Would hiring an attorney be the best thing? Know of a reasonable one? This happened in Adams County if it matters.

Thanks guys, Mike
Was it a TRO or a RO? One being Temp stating a certain amount of time, the other being for life.

It's quite the process to get a RO issued, but a TRO can be done pretty easily.

Contact the court, find out, go from there. Either way get an atty would be my suggestion. Chances are you will need to file something to absolve it, or speak to the judge to reverse or a new judge to vacate previous judges order.

If you are subject currently to the RO I would tread very very carefully around firearms depending on the order itself.
