Can a restraining order be used to determine who is the aggressor in a mutual restraining order?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Karen M. v. Vincent P., B284763 (Cal. App. 2019):

aggressor and who acted in self-defense in cases that often are tried without corroboration. Mutual restraining orders often stigmatize the real victim by placing blame equally when it should be unilateral. (Monterroso v. Moran (2006) 135 Cal.App.4th 732, 738.)
