I am going through a divorce and my wife filed a restraining order for domestic violence. She did it to gain the upper hand in the divorce. I have never hit or abused my wife nor was I ever charged with a crime for domestic violence. That being said, in 2014 we got into an argument and she threatend to call 911. She dialed and never talked to them and hung up the phone. The police officers responded to our home for an abandoned 911 call. When they got there they asked what happened and we both told the police officers separately it was a verbal altercation and it never got physical. They checked us both out and said that there were no visible injuries and they left the house. Fast forward to a month and a half ago, my wife told me she wanted a divorce and said she was leaving to go to her parents house. I was upset and I asked her not to leave so we could talk about this. She went into her office at our home and was packing her work belongings up and I was standing in the doorway and asked her not to leave. She was sitting at her desk and told me to move out of the doorway so she could leave and I asked her not to leave so we could talk about this again. She said if I didn't move she was going to dial 911 I asked her for what and then she dialed 911 and told the operator I would not let her leave and that she needed police officers to our home. I went outside and waited for the police to show up and they did about 20 min. Later they asked what happened and I told them. They waited for my wife to leave and they talked to me for a minute and then they left. 3 days later I was served by the sheriff with a temporary injunction for domestic violence. She is claiming on the night in 2014 that I choked her and spit on her and in early 2015 I did the same thing to her 2 times but she never called the police. I have a copy of the police report stating that on that night we both said it was just a verbal argument and it never got physical. So basically she lied on the injunction. I do have a attorney. I want to go to court and fight the restraining order but my attorney wants to work it out in a global agreement and get it dropped that way. In the meantime I can't go home and my wife has ruined my business! She has shut off my work phone, closed my business bank account. I do hunting trips this time of year and can't do them cause I can't possess my fire arms. I have never been charged with criminal charges against my wife. I have never been arrested in my life. Now everywhere I go I see her. I was at the gym the other day and 4min after I left she came in and told the people at the gym I wasn't supposed to be there cause we have an order of protection and cancelled my membership. She has drove past my house multiple times. And pulled up next to me at stop lights. I have not tried to contact her at all. Should I go to court in feb. and fight it or wait until we come to a global agreement? My attorney says the judge we have hands out restraining orders more than she should.
