CHAPTER 6 GUN VIOLENCE 6.1 Gun Violence Restraining Orders (Eff. 1/1/2024) I. A. An ex parte Gun Violence Restraining Order (“GVRO”) may be requested by filing a written petition in the department handling civil harassment restraining orders. (See section II. Below.) B. If a TE-GVRO was ordered on an oral request by a law enforcement officer, the requesting law enforcement officer must memorialize the order on California Judicial Council Form #EPO-002, without filling in a date and time for the court hearing and serve and file the order with the court per Penal Code §18140. II. A. A Gun Violence Restraining Order (“GVRO”) is an ex-parte GVRO, a law enforcement officer or an immediate family member may seek this. Facts in support of the request that establish the grounds of the petition must be submitted for review on the approved California Judicial Council Form #GV-100. B. In the case of a GVRO, the order will be issued only when the court finds that (1) the subject of the petition poses a significant danger, in the near future, of causing personal injury to himself, herself, or another by having in their custody or control, owning, purchasing, possessing, or receiving a firearm as determined by considering the factors listed in Penal Code §18155; and (2) the order is necessary to prevent personal injury to the subject of the petition or another because less restrictive alternatives either have been tried and found to be ineffective, or are inadequate or inappropriate for the circumstances of the subject of the petition. (Pen. Code, §18150.) C. After the petition is filed, a judge considers the information presented by the petitioner and assesses whether the person is presently at risk of harming themselves or someone else or poses a significant danger, in the near future, of causing personal injury to himself, herself, or another. If issued, both types of initial orders will be issued or denied on the same day that the petition is submitted to the court, unless the petition is filed too late in the day to permit an effective review, in which case the order shall be issued or denied on the next day of judicial business. The order will be in effect for 21 days or less. D. If an ex parte TE-GVRO or GVRO is ordered, the court will fill in a date and time for the court hearing and the requesting party must have the TE-GVRO or GVRO served as required by applicable law. These steps should be taken as soon as possible. The restrained person will not be prohibited from possessing firearms and/or ammunition until all steps are completed by the law enforcement officer.

Effective July 1, 2023, pursuant to the Penal Code §18122, Petitions for Gun Violence Restraining Order (JC Form #GV-100) (GVRO) may be submitted electronically through one of the court’s approved e-Filing service providers (EFSP), with exceptions for specific documents.
