New Iowa law lets sexual abuse victims seek civil protective orders
A July 1 law allows victims to ask a judge for a civil protective order before arrest or without a police report for crimes in Iowa Code 709 including sexual abuse and incest. Victims may file without reporting to police, with no required domestic relationship, and can keep their address confidential. Courts may grant orders to stop abuse and keep victims’ homes, schools, or workplaces safe, while CASA reports rising statewide awareness and ongoing training.
