Protective order battle continues
Article Abstract:
The plaintiffs' bar has enjoyed success in a number of states in its battle for laws placing a limit on the use of protective orders and is now trying to lengthen the list of states with these laws on the books. States with these laws in place include Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Texas and Virginia. The plaintiffs' bar hopes to add Alaska, California, Hawaii, Louisiana, Nevada and Oregon to that list in 1993.
