How would I find a judge or justice of the peace in the middle of the night?
The police and staff at social service agencies authorized to apply for the order will know how to contact the judges or justices. It is possible for you to make an application yourself but the application must be made in person during normal court hours. The police or a member of an authorized social service agency can apply for an emergency protection order on your behalf by telephone immediately. The order can only be applied for by others if you give your consent.
