Leyes de órdenes de restricción por estado (2026): cómo obtener una orden de protección

Actualizaciones

Se corrigió la pena federal por violar la prohibición de armas a hasta 15 años bajo 18 U.S.C. 924(a)(8), y se aclaró que la regla federal de exención de tarifas para órdenes de protección también cubre acecho, agresión sexual y violencia en el noviazgo, no solo violencia doméstica.
