When does a protective measure become a criminal proceeding? Understand the possibility | Human R...
Have you received a protective order and are you afraid it will turn into a criminal case?
This is a very common question among men accused of domestic violence—and one that can cause a lot of unnecessary worry.
In this class, Dr. Vinícius Vieira, a criminal lawyer specializing in the Maria da Penha Law, explains in a practical and straightforward way how the emergency protective order process works and when (and why) it can lead to a police investigation or criminal action.
You will understand:
✅ How a protective order process arises (as a rule);
✅ When the Public Prosecutor's Office can request the opening of an investigation based on the emergency protective order process;
✅ Whether it is possible to have a criminal case without a police report, that is, directly from the protective order;
✅ And when the criminal case is not directly related to the protective order.
Watch until the end and find out if the protective order against you can turn into a criminal case—and in which cases it doesn't.
