Types of Injunctions in Kissimmee & Osceola County

Florida offers several types of civil injunctions for protection. In Kissimmee and throughout Osceola County, the most common are:

  • Domestic Violence Injunctions – For spouses, former spouses, family or household members, or people who share a child.
  • Dating Violence Injunctions – For people who have or recently had a romantic or intimate relationship.

How Injunctions Work in Osceola County

Injunction proceedings in Kissimmee typically take place at the Osceola County Courthouse. While the process is civil, outcomes can affect your record, gun rights, and family law cases, so these hearings should be taken seriously.

  1. Petition filed – The petitioner files a sworn petition explaining what happened and why protection is needed.
  2. Judge reviews for a temporary injunction – The court may grant a temporary order without a hearing if it alleges immediate danger.
  3. Service on the respondent – The respondent must follow restrictions immediately once served.
  4. Final hearing – Both sides may present evidence, witnesses, and testimony; the judge decides whether to grant, deny, modify, or dismiss.

Florida injunction law is found in the
Florida Statutes.
Many repeat and dating violence injunctions are governed by
§ 784.046.

Frequently Asked Questions About Kissimmee Injunctions

What is the difference between a restraining order and an injunction in Florida?

In Florida, people often use “restraining order” and “injunction” to mean the same thing. Courts issue specific types of injunctions for protection under Florida law. A Kissimmee injunction lawyer can help you identify which type applies.

Where do I file for an injunction in Kissimmee?

Injunction petitions for Kissimmee and the surrounding area are generally filed with the Osceola County Clerk of Court.

How long does a final injunction last?

Some final injunctions have an end date; others remain in effect until further order of the court. The court can modify, extend, or terminate an injunction later.

Can an injunction affect my job, record, or gun rights?

Yes. While an injunction is civil, it can have serious consequences, and a violation can lead to criminal charges.

What if there is also a custody or family law case?

Injunctions and family cases often overlap. Our team can help coordinate strategy so positions taken in one case don’t harm the other.
