Asking for a friend. Hypothetically.
Say my friend, hypothetically, had an injunction that forbade him from entering his own apartment or having any "direct or indirect contact" with his partner.
Say there's a court date pending in a few weeks.
Let's assume it's an interim injunction.
And let's say the hypothetical processing police officer told my friend that there are ways of getting it dropped, but they're not supposed to tell him that.
The obvious one, I assume, is if the victim decides to "drop the charges" (if that's how it works).
How might my friend negotiate that if he is not even allowed to have indirect contact with his partner? Does that forbid third parties from trying to bridge the gap?
I find lots of stuff online about applying and enforcing an injunction, but not a lot getting one dismissed.
