In what circumstances have courts granted termination or modification of a final order of protection?

"New York", United States of America

The following excerpt is from People v. Lassitter, 2015 NY Slip Op 25341 (N.Y. Crim. Ct. 2015):

There is also one case a court denied termination or modification. In People v. Bohlman, 30 Misc 3d 313, 3913 N.Y.S.2d 497 (Dist Ct Nassau Count 2010), the defendant moved to vacate a final order of protection entered in favor of his former girlfriend. His motion included an affidavit from the former girlfriend asserting that she did not want an order of protection and was not afraid of the defendant. Nevertheless, the court, citing the history of violence between the parties and the protected party's numerous prior efforts to obtain orders of protection against the defendant, declined to vacate it. Id.
