I did not make myself as clear as I should have; the protective order, as well as prohibiting someone from going within so many feet of another individual, can also, and usually does, prohibit other conduct, such as threatening, harassing, etc. My point was that the Temporary Restraining Order does not prohibit coming within so much of a distance of someone.

Crossfire: Actually, it is the other way around; the protective order generally says that you are prohibited from going within so mant feet from and individual, and the Restraining Order restrains (enjoins) you from committing violence, threatening violence, harassing, etc. A Temporary Restraining Order can be issued without the Judge hearing evidence, and is only good for a limited period of time (14 days), and does not affect your CHL, but it can be made into a Temporary Injunction after a hearing has been held, and that (and the Protective Order) can definitely affect your CHL.
