A restraining order is issued in America every 32 seconds. While it seems unlikely, a father going through divorce can easily face a restraining order or a false protection order against them. When facing a restraining order, an individual can possibly lose their freedom, money, and children without ever knowing why.

The question then begs to be asked, why would someone falsely accuse their husband and request unnecessary protection from them? This two part series explains seven reasons why a father might have a restraining order filed against him during a divorce.

1. The ex-wife may want to “win” and use the law as much as possible to make it happen. Unfortunately the legal system is often manipulated in favor of women. If the spouse acts out abusively for any reason then yes, a restraining order should be put in place. If the man committed an offense he should be held responsible and the children should be taken away for their own protection. Sadly, this is not usually the case and several not guilty dads are left to fight bogus restraining orders as they are dragged through the legal system.

2. The ex-wife and her attorney will seek out an opportunity to gain the advantage during the divorce. Many immoral divorce lawyers routinely advise women to get a restraining order so they can win custody, higher alimony and much more. This happens a lot than thought possible.

3. The ex-wife hopes to gain speedy custody of her kids without the hassle of a court hearing. Yes this can become reality! Moreover, the ex-wife can actually have a secret hearing that the other party involved is not allowed to attend.

These are just three reasons a woman might file for an unnecessary restraining order during a divorce. Read the second part of this series to learn more.
