Revocation of recognised DVO
12 Revocation of recognised DVO
A DVO ceases to be a recognised DVO if the DVO is revoked in Tasmania or another jurisdiction and that revocation is recognised in Tasmania.
A revocation of a local DVO is recognised in Tasmania if the revocation is done – in Tasmania by a court or any other person authorised to do so under the Family Violence Act 2004; or in another participating jurisdiction by a court under a corresponding law.
A revocation of an interstate DVO or foreign order is recognised in Tasmania if the revocation is done – in the issuing jurisdiction by a court or any other person authorised to do so under the law of the issuing jurisdiction; or in any participating jurisdiction by a court under this Act or a corresponding law.
The DVO ceases to be a recognised DVO from the time it is revoked.
