IMPORTANT:

By using the “do-it-yourself” Personal Protection Order, YOU ARE CHOOSING TO REPRESENT YOURSELF IN A LAWSUIT. You have involved the Court, so YOU MUST FOLLOW THE COURT’S RULES. If you miss a required step, or fail to properly and completely fill out required forms, the Order you get from the Court could be ineffective, and you could remain unprotected.

Can I fill out PPO forms online?

Call your County’s Circuit Court Clerk to find out. Some courts may insist that you use their SCAO forms packets, or local forms.

Most of the forms listed above are in PDF, and have fill-in-the-blank fields. (Use the Tab key to go from field-to-field.) The forms include instruction notes on which sections you must fill out. Check-boxes can be checked and unchecked, as needed. You can save your work and reopen the form. When you are done, print it off.
