I can’t figure out the answer to this question, I’ve done a lot of searching online.
In California a permanent CIVIL Domestic Violence Restraining Order (DVRO) will not go on your criminal record, because it’s a civil issue.
In Minnesota a CIVIL Order for Protection (OfP) (analogous to the Cali DVRO) WILL go on your criminal record! I have read multiple sources that say this.
My question is:
If I have a permanent civil restraining order against me in CA, but I now live in MN, will this show up on my criminal record? What if the DVRO is explicitly registered in MN? Will it be registered like an OfP and go on my record?
Thanks
