Appeal published after teen client is denied protective order

Beverly is a young mother and a survivor of dating violence. She came to Survivor Justice Center through our Teen/LA program when she was 18 with her infant child. The father of her child had inflicted physical and mental abuse on her during their relationship and continued to threaten her after they broke up. Beverly feared for her and her child's safety because of the batterer's controlling behavior, so she sought a permanent restraining order.
