Under Law No. 6284 on the Protection of the Family and Prevention of Violence Against Women, there are two types of protective orders. The first is a protective order, and the second is a preventive order. Protective orders are also divided into two categories based on the authorities that issue them. The first is issued by the local administrative authority (governor or district governor), and the second by the family court (civil courts in places where there is no family court). In administrative protective orders, the primary authority rests with the local administrative authority. However, in cases where delay would be detrimental, a law enforcement officer can also issue a protective order.
