简单地说，家庭暴力罪会导致刑事指控，而 "制止暴力令"（AVO）则是法院针对被控犯有家庭暴力罪的人向受害人签发的法律保护令。该命令禁止施暴者的某些行为特征，如跟踪、骚扰、意图伤害的恐吓或可能导致投诉人恐惧的虐待。.

Domestic violence charges allege criminal offences, while an apprehended violence order (AVO) is a civil order that imposes conditions to protect a person. Both can still have serious consequences for your family life and employment.
The best approach depends on the evidence, your personal and work circumstances, and any related criminal charges. An AVO lawyer will explain the conditions proposed and the long‑term impact before you decide.
An AVO can restrict contact and may be considered in family law or parenting proceedings. Legal advice helps you understand how to comply with orders while protecting your relationship with your children.
Breaching an AVO is itself a criminal offence and can lead to arrest, further charges and a real risk of imprisonment. It is essential to understand and strictly follow all conditions, and obtain advice immediately if accused of a breach.
The decision to continue is made by the prosecution, not the complainant, although their views may be considered. A lawyer can communicate with the prosecution, assess the strength of the case and seek withdrawal where appropriate.
