Full Faith and Credit

Brian obtained a protection order against his same-sex abuser, Tom. The provisions of the court order require that Tom must refrain from abusing, threatening, or attempting to harm Brian in any way. Further, Tom is ordered not to contact Brian or come near his residence. Brian decided to move to another state in order to start a new life without fear. He has learned that Tom is looking for him and he wonders what to do. In the state where he now lives, same-sex partners are not eligible to obtain protection orders.
