More details to this question:
My boyfriend and I got onto a small disagreement and the cops got called. He went to jail and judge put a no contact order out. I'm trying to get it dropped so I contacted the courthouse. I was told that I needed to write the letter to a judge and it should be dropped. So I did that but the no contact order is still in effect. What should I do to get this contact order dropped?

The judge has the right to run his criminal case the way he wants, and that includes keeping your bf away from you while a charge is pending. You should talk to the victim's advocate at the prosecutor's office about the situation.
