Does plaintiff have to show up to court?

[Anonymous]

Guy got a restraining order on me because I found out he has a girlfriend and I went to his house to confront him and he got a restraining order against me. What happens if he is a no show?

first of all, this restraining order will not go through lol. you cannot get a restraining order on someone just because they showed up to your house... proof/intent of harm has to be shown. and there's obviously none of that. that guy is a dumbass. so really, no need to worry anyways.

to answer your real question, if he doesn't show then it'll probably be dismissed.

"If you do not show up for the trial, the Plaintiff can ask for a default judgment against you as above. You will have missed your chance to tell your side of the claim to the judge."

They have me in text basically saying he played me and was in a relationship all along. I sent the naked picture of me and him to her phone. She left that out of the proof.
