Melissa G. v. Raymond M.
Annotate this CaseFather appealed from domestic violence restraining orders that were granted under the Domestic Violence Prevention Act (DVPA). The Court of Appeal held that the trial court erred by not making the factual findings required under Family Code section 6305. In this case, the court expressed no view on whether father should be found to be a primary aggressor and not acting primarily in self-defense. The court reversed the mutual restraining orders and remanded for factual findings and reconsideration of the restraining order requests based on those findings.
