What are the statutes related to civil injunctions in Florida?

In Florida, civil injunctions are governed by Chapter 741 of the Florida Statutes, which deals with domestic violence, and Chapter 784, which covers other types of injunctions. These statutes allow individuals who have been the victim of violence or have reasonable apprehension of violence to seek an injunction against the perpetrator. The court can issue a temporary or permanent injunction that may require the respondent to stay away from the petitioner, refrain from contacting the petitioner, and vacate their shared residence. Violating an injunction can result in arrest and other legal penalties.
