Application for order
40 Application for order
An application for a declaration that a DVO is a recognised DVO in Victoria may be made by any person who would be able to make an application for variation of the DVO if the DVO were a recognised DVO.
The application must be made in accordance with the rules made under the Family Violence Protection Act 2008.
Note
It is only necessary to make an application in one participating jurisdiction. Under section 36, once a declaration is made in any participating jurisdiction the DVO will be treated as a recognised DVO in all participating jurisdictions.
Pts 8–10 (Headings and ss 41–128) repealed by No. 53/2016 s. 128.
