More details to this question:
Can the same judge that has been taking parenting/child support case also take a rest ranting order/domestic violence case for the same people when the child was not involved? The father still has the same visitation but can not be in contact with the mother?

I think this is the same quesiton that was answered previously. If there is domestic violence and a restraining order involved in a matrimonial matter, the family court judge handles the whole thing as one case.
