  • Attempts to control, regulate, and monitor a spouse's finances, economic resources, movements, and access to communications are abuse and must be considered in deciding whether a DVRO is appropriate.
  • Parties' post-TRO sex was part of their repeated cycle of violence, gifts, forgiveness, sex, and then repeated acts of violence and did not preclude issuance of a DV-RO.
