Your ex-wife could not have gotten a three-year protective order without you receiving notice and having an opportunity to be heard in court.  If so, you still have the opportunity to have the case reheard and/or to appeal it to the next level court.  These procedures have strict deadlines and can be complicated, so you should seek to hire a lawyer to assist you as soon as possible. The lawyer will need to see the court paperwork to ascertain exactly what happened and advise you on the best course of action.  Without seeing the paperwork myself and reviewing the file, I am reluctant to try to provide you with any further advice. This answer is given in accordance with the laws of Virginia and may not be applicable in any other state.  It should not be construed as legal advice, as that would require a more thorough analysis of all of the facts involved in a specific case.  If you need further information or assistance, please feel free to contact my office for a consultation. Case results depend upon a variety of factors unique to each case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any future case.
