Advice from Dad to Janine
Your mother, Janice, was diagnosed as having borderline personality disorder. I
was told that this is due to environment and not genes, which is good news.
I recovered you and Dana from Everett Washington in 1986. About 14 years later,
as I recall, Karen's husband found your email address on the internet. That must
have been in the year 2000. At that time, I asked your mother why she didn't
contact us sooner. I had paid to maintain the same old phone number 847-459-
7692, I still remember it, and I had an answering machine attached to it in case
your mother called. She never did. Shiela came around once with Wayne
(Nicknamed "Cuetip" for his platinum blond hair.) and looked at you and Dana
through the front door window. I didn't want to let her in as I was afraid of
problems. After all, I had just recovered you from an abduction and fear of another
abduction was first on my mind.
Back in 2000, your mother stated that she didn't know how to contact us. I had
searched for her on the internet more than once and she was apparently unlisted.
Perhaps she assumed that we were unlisted like she was. In any case, her excuse
in 2000 was that she didn't think that she could find us by calling information
and so she didn't even try.
Now on June 22, 2008, she states that the reason has changed and that the actual
reason was that I had an order of protection preventing her from contacting me or
my daughters and that this order has been in effect since 1986 or so. In fact, she
accused me of renewing my vendetta against her and trying to get her rearrested
in 1993.
According to the following site, orders of protection are listed on Washington
State's computer system. We could call the following lawyer and verify if such an
order against Janice Megan Jensen ever existed in the state of Washington. It is
difficult to know anything with certainty, but I somehow doubt that there was an
order of protection that was granted that I didn't know anything about.

Restraining Orders
In family law, there are different types of restraining orders:
Temporary Order for Protection Restraining Orders Anti-Harassment Orders
v Temporary Order for Protection: A Temporary Order for Protection provides
protection from another person during the period of time it takes for a court to
conduct a hearing determining the necessity of a Permanent Order. Temporary
Protection Order requests may be filed in Municipal, District, or Superior Court. A
Temporary Order requires filing a petition and judge approval. Once these
prerequisites are met, a Temporary Order is immediately entered. The party
against whom the Order is entered, the Respondent, is served a copy of the Order
by the local sheriff.
Subsequent to entry of a Temporary Order, a judge will set a hearing date two
weeks after the initial hearing to adjudicate whether a Permanent Order is
appropriate. If children are involved in the proceeding, the Permanent Order
hearing is held in Superior Court. The Respondent is permitted to attend the
hearing to provide the court his or her account of the events preceding the Order
petition. If the Respondent is absent from the hearing, the Petitioner is required to
demonstrate the Respondent properly received notice of the hearing.
An Order for Protection can provide the following protection:
► Prohibit the Respondent from having any contact with the Petitioner, including
threats, harassment, stalking, and/or molesting the Petitioner or their child or
children.
► Prevent the Respondent from appearing at the Petitioner’s home, work, school,
or the school or daycare of their child or children.
► Prohibit the Respondent from having any contact with a child or children, or it
may establish a visitation schedule for the Respondent’s contact with a child or
children.
► Order the Respondent to attend counseling or undergo a drug/alcohol
evaluation.
► Provide the Petitioner use or possession of essential personal effects or a
vehicle.
► The Respondent can be ordered to attend counseling or have a drug/alcohol
evaluation.
► The order can also grant the Petitioner the use or possession of essential
personal effects or a vehicle.
Orders for Protection are registered in a state-wide computer system and are
enforced throughout Washington and other states. Orders are entered for a fixed
period of time or on a permanent basis. However, orders entered for protection of a
child or children are limited in scope to one year or less. Orders protecting a child
or children are renewable, and must be renewed by the court, unless the
Respondent demonstrates he or she is no longer a risk to the individuals specified
in the Order for Protection.
The party protected by an Order for Protection should always carry a certified copy
of the Order. The police must be shown a copy of the Order upon responding to a
violation in order to enforce the Order. It is a criminal offense to violate the terms
of an Order for Protection and the Respondent will be arrested if he or she violates
the Order.
v Restraining Orders: If a family law action such as a divorce, paternity, legal
separation, nonparental custody petition, petition for a parenting plan, or a
parenting plan modification is filed a Restraining Order may be requested.
Restraining Orders are entered first on a temporary basis. They may be made
permanent at the end of the case. A Restraining Order may order the Respondent
to stay away from the Petitioner and the child/children and exclude him or her
from the Petitioner’s home, workplace, daycare, or school. The Respondent can
also be ordered not to remove the child/children from the jurisdiction of the court.
Other restraints may be added if appropriate.
The Restraining Order can be enforced in the same way as an Order for Protection.
If a violation of the order is reported, the police must enforce the order by arresting
the Respondent.
v Anti-Harassment Orders: This order applies when a person has been seriously
intimidated, annoyed, or harassed. Parties involved are generally not married,
have not lived together, and have no child/children in common. The Petitioner
must prove that the other person's conduct was such that it would cause any
reasonable person to suffer serious emotional distress, and that the other person's
conduct was intentional or willful and did not serve any legitimate or legal
purpose. This is different from the definition of domestic violence and may not
involve the same penalties for violations. A petition for an Anti-Harassment Order
is typically filed in district court.
