GENERAL THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK INSTRUCTIONS
WHO CAN GET ORDERS PROHIBITING ABUSE OR MISCONDUCT? TO Individuals or organizations that run a transitional housing program can ask the court for these orders. The Transitional Housing Misconduct Act applies only if the housing program (1) is run by a government agency, a private nonprofit corporation that receives program funds from a government agency, or an operator hired by one of the above to run the program; GREETINGS: (2) helps homeless persons obtain the skills necessary for independent living in permanent housing; (3) includes regular individualized case management services; WE COMMAND living that all business requires compliance with program rules; and (4) provides a structured YOU,environment and and excuses being laid aside, you and each of you attend before , the Honorable the occupancy period to not less than 30 days but not more than 24 months. at the Court (5) restricts at County of operator can ask thelocatedfor orders against a participant.

WHEN CAN THE COURT MAKE ORDERS PROHIBITING ABUSE OR MISCONDUCT? Program operators can ask the court for orders if the participant has engaged in program misconduct or abuse. The participant's conduct is program misconduct if (1) the participant intentionally broke the program rules; (2) the participant's conduct substantially interferes with the program operator's ability to run the housing program; and (3) the conduct relates to (a) drunkenness, sale or use of drugs, theft, arson, or destruction of another person's property; or (b) violence or threats of violence directed at, and harassment of, immediate neighbors of the program site, program employees, or other participants. The participant's conduct is abuse if (1) the participant did or attempted to attack, strike, batter, or sexually assault other participants, program employees, or immediate neighbors of the program site; or (2) the participant threatened to attack, strike, batter, or sexually assault the above individuals. WHAT KINDS OF ORDERS ARE AVAILABLE TO PREVENT ABUSE OR MISCONDUCT? A program operator can request a Temporary Restraining Order or a "permanent" order (Order After Hearing), or both. These both are court orders forbidding someone from engaging in the activity described in the order. A Temporary Restraining Order is issued by a judge after a request for a permanent order has been filed, but before there has been a full hearing. Permanent orders can be issued only after a full hearing before a judge, where both the participant and the program operator can be represented by attorneys and have the opportunity to present evidence. TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDERS ("TRO") BEFORE THE HEARING A TRO orders the participant to stop the abuse or misconduct and goes into effect immediately. The order lasts a maximum of five days. The court may not be able to grant a hearing within five days, in which case the order will last until the hearing. To get a TRO the program operator must prove that the participant has engaged in program misconduct or abuse and that great or irreparable harm will result before the hearing if the TRO is not granted. In limited circumstances, the judge can use a TRO to order the participant to move out. The judge will do this only if it is necessary to protect another participant, a program employee, or an individual who lives within 100 feet of the program site from imminent serious bodily injury. To get a TRO excluding the participant from program housing, the program operator must provide clear and convincing evidence that the participant engaged in abuse and that great or irreparable injury will result before the hearing if the participant is not ordered to move out or stay away from the housing program, or both. If the participant has been living in program housing under contract for six months or longer, the program operator cannot get a TRO unless an action is pending against the participant or a TRO is already in effect and is subject to further orders. The program operator may still use unlawful detainer procedures or file for a permanent order only. You must give notice to the participant before asking for a TRO. Notice requires you to show the judge that (1) before applying for the TRO you told the participant or the participant's attorney when and where the application would be made; or (2) you made a good-faith effort to tell the participant or the participant's attorney; or (3) you should not have to give notice because great harm would result to a program operator, participant, or immediate neighbor of the program site before the hearing. ORDER AFTER HEARING ("PERMANENT" ORDERS) Temporary restraining orders last a maximum of five days or until the hearing. When the judge issues the TRO, he or she will set a date for the hearing on the permanent order (also called the Order After Hearing or "injunction"). A "permanent" order issued after a hearing lasts up to one year. The program operator seeking the order must have the following papers delivered (served) to the participant at least two days before the hearing (1) a copy of the Order to Show Cause (Transitional Housing Misconduct); (2) a copy of the Temporary Restraining Orders (if any); (3) a copy of the Petition for Order Prohibiting Abuse or Program Misconduct; (4) a blank Participant's Response (Transitional Housing Misconduct); (5) two copies of a blank Attached Declaration (form MC-031);

Order After Hearing continued (6) a blank Proof of Personal Service (Transitional Housing Misconduct); (7) a copy of these instructions; and (8) copies of all materials (affidavits and supporting memoranda) to be used in the hearing. The Order to Show Cause must contain the name and phone number of the Legal Services Office in the county where the petition was filed, and must inform the participant this office may be called for legal advice about responding to the request for court orders. In limited circumstances the court will make a permanent order for the participant to move out of or keep away from the program site. To get this type of order, the program operator must provide clear and convincing evidence that the participant engaged in abuse and that great or irreparable injury will result if the order is not granted. WHAT IS NEEDED TO GET THE COURT ORDERS OR TO OBJECT TO THEM? 1. Transitional Housing Misconduct forms, available from the superior court clerk's office or from legal publishers. The court clerk can tell you where to get the forms. 2. A typewriter with which to fill out the forms. The forms should be typed. Some volunteer legal service groups have typewriters you can use, and some libraries offer the use of typewriters for a small fee. If you cannot type, print clearly. 3. Money for a court filing fee, unless the court excuses you from paying. If you cannot afford to pay the court filing fee, ask the clerk for the Information Sheet on Waiver of Court Fees and Costs. If you are a participant objecting to the court orders, you do not have to pay to file your response. 4. Someone 18 years of age or older to deliver (serve) certain papers to the other party. This person must be someone other than yourself, and not an employee of the program. WHAT FORMS ARE AVAILABLE FOR OBTAINING OR OPPOSING AN ORDER? Petition for Order Prohibiting Abuse or Program Misconduct [''Petition"]. This four-page form tells the judge the facts of the program operator's case and what orders the program operator wants the judge to make. Order to Show Cause and Temporary Restraining Order ["OSC/TRO"]. The judge signs this order to tell the participant to come to court for the court hearing. It may contain court orders that take effect immediately and stay in effect for up to five days or until the hearing. Participant's Response ["Response"]. The participant may file this form to object to the orders the program operator asked the court to make, and to give his or her side of the story. Order After Hearing [''Order'']. This is the permanent order or injunction. This form is signed by the court following the hearing. It will expire in one year or less unless the court terminates, modifies, or extends it. Proof of Personal Service. This form shows that a participant or program operator has been served with legal papers as required by law.

Steps to Take to Get a Court Order continued 2. Make copies. You will need at least five copies of each Transitional Housing Misconduct form: one for a worksheet, the original to file with the court, a copy to be personally delivered (served) to the participant, and two copies for yourself. You will need more than five copies of the OSC/TRO, the Order, and the Proof of Service form. In addition to the five copies above, get one for each law enforcement agency you want to enforce your orders, and two for yourself. 3. TRO. If you are requesting a TRO you must give details of the participant's misconduct or abuse, the problems it has caused you, and why you need an order before a full hearing. Place an "X" in the box marked "To be ordered now and to be effective until the hearing" under numbers 8, 9,10, 11, or 13 on the Petition. 4. Court clerk. Take all your completed forms and all copies to the clerk's office in the superior court. The clerk will tell you where to take your papers and when to pay your filing fee, if required. 5. Court papers. If the judge signs the OSC/TRO, take the original and all copies back to the court clerk. The clerk will stamp all the papers with a case number. The copies must include an "Endorsed-Filed" stamp (showing the date of filing), the judge's signature, and the date of signing. The clerk will file the originals and give you the copies. KEEP TWO ENDORSED-FILED COPIES FOR YOURSELF. Carry one with you and keep one in a safe place. You may need one if you have to call the police. 6. Personal service. Have the participant personally served with copies of the Petition and the OSC/TRO, a blank copy of the Response, two blank copies of form MC-031, a blank copy of the Proof of Personal Service, a copy of these instructions, and a copy of all materials (affidavits and supporting memoranda) to be used in the hearing. On the OSC/TRO you must fill in the box on the first page with the name, address, and phone number of the Legal Services Office in the county in which the petition is filed. You cannot serve the participant yourself. Service may be made by a licensed process server, the sheriff's department, or any person 18 years of age or older, other than you or a program employee. The papers must be delivered to the participant personally, and cannot be mailed or left at the participant's dwelling unit. Service is very important. It tells the participant about the order and the hearing. Without it there will not be a court hearing and your TRO will no longer be good unless it is extended by the court. The participant must be personally served at least two days before the hearing. 7. Copy to the police. If you have requested a TRO and the judge has granted them, immediately deliver copies to each law enforcement agency (police, marshal, or sheriff's office) that you want to enforce the order. 8. After service. After the participant has been personally served, the person who served the participant must complete and sign the original of the Proof of Personal Service form. Take the signed original and the copies back to the court clerk. The clerk will file the original and stamp "Endorsed-Filed" on the copies. Deliver one Endorsed-Filed copy to each law enforcement agency at which you filed your TRO. Keep two Endorsed-Filed copies for yourself. 9. Court hearing. Go to the court hearing with any evidence you have. Any witnesses to the participant's conduct also should come to the hearing. The Order should be filled in and given to the judge for signing. 10. File the Order. If the judge signs the Order, file the original with the clerk, get the copies stamped with an "EndorsedFiled" stamp, and immediately deliver copies to law enforcement agencies. If the participant was not present in court for the hearing, arrange to have the participant personally served with a copy of the Order. File the completed Proof of Personal Service with the court and deliver copies stamped "EndorsedFiled" to law enforcement agencies. KEEP TWO COPIES FOR YOURSELF. Carry one with you and keep one in a safe place. 11. Renewal. An Order will expire within one year, but you can apply for an extension. The law requires you to file for a renewal by filing a new Petition any time within three months before the Order expires. Do not check the modification box on the Petition when you file for renewal. WHAT TO DO IF THE PARTICIPANT DISOBEYS THE ORDER 1. Reports. Report violations of the Order as soon as possible to your local law enforcement agency. Keep a written record of the incidents and obtain copies of police reports concerning them. 2. Contempt of court. Violation of a restraining order is punishable by civil contempt of court. You must file a civil contempt action in the same court that issued the restraining order. If the participant is in contempt of court, you can file for a modification of the order (use form TH-100) and ask the court to order the participant to move out of the program housing.

Participant, his wife, and their five-year-old daughter live in an apartment in a security building where a program employee is always on duty. On June 22, 1992, participant returned home after the program curfew of 11 p.m. (Rule 10(a).) He staggered in with the smell of alcohol on his breath and clothes and required the assistance of his wife and the night manager to make it to bed. (Rule 4(a).) On June 24, 1992, participant yelled loudly at his wife, disturbing other residents, when she asked him to stop drinking. On June 25, 1992, participant again returned home drunk. (Rule 4(a).) When his wife attempted to help him to their apartment, participant cursed at her, hit her in the face, and tried to push her down the stairs. (Rule 7(b).) When the night manager attempted to intervene, participant cursed at him and told him to mind his own business. (Rule 7(a).) On June 26, 1992, participant's wife had a cut lip and large bruise near her mouth as a result of participant's actions. (Rule 7(b).) That evening, participant returned home sober, but told the night manager (John Roe) that he (participant) would "get him" if he intervened between participant and his wife again. (Rule 7(a).) Several residents have complained about the noise made by participant. Participant's drinking interferes with other residents' efforts to refrain from drinking. Residents do not understand why participant is not disciplined for breaking the program rules against drinking and disruptive behavior. (Rule 7(b).) The night manager is afraid to work a shift alone when participant might again return home drunk. (Rule 7(a).)

Participant has threatened the night manager (John Roe), and the manager is afraid to work a shift alone in participant's building. The program has a limited staff, and we cannot replace John until the hearing. Other participants have been disturbed by participant's behavior and we need to be able to restrain him to continue to operate the program in his building. The night manager may need the assistance of the police to protect Margaret Doe from her husband if participant again returns home drunk.
