M.Y. v. E.O. CA6
E.O. (mother) appeals from a February 2016 order granting the application of respondent M.Y. (father) for renewal of a restraining order issued under the Domestic Violence Prevention Act (DVPA). (See Fam. Code, § 6200 et seq.)
The February 2016 order renewed a restraining order that had been issued in March 2015. The March 2015 restraining order contained personal conduct, no-contact, and stay-away orders, and it ordered mother to move out of the family home. At the time the March 2015 restraining order was issued, the court had already granted father sole legal and physical custody of the parties’ children. In issuing the March 2015 restraining order, the trial court found that there had been no rebuttal of the section 3044 presumption against an award of sole or joint physical or legal custody of the children to a person who has perpetrated domestic violence.
