    on behalf of
    Committee on the Impact of Domestic Violence and the Courts
    Judge Wendy Million, Chair

    At its February 18, 2025 meeting, the Committee on the Impact of Domestic Violence and the Courts (“CIDVC”) voted to oppose the Petition to amend Rule 36, Arizona Rules of Protective Order Procedure (ARPOP). During its discussion, members of CIDVC agreed that some of the issues the Petition attempts to address are redundant to existing ARPOP rules or may create unintended consequences for victims of domestic violence.
