What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Back in 09 while I was in missouri for school before I transferred I had a girl stock me and I had proof of her harassing me and stocking me to the point where she went of her way to figure out my last name, which lead her to finding me on facebook and finding where my dorm room was where she seen multiple times on my floor in front of my door. MY friend and I were talking about restraining orders and he told me that there has to be a prior police statement filled out before that to obtain a restraining order, back then would this have been the case to get a restraining order against her?
