The woman further alleged that she is “very afraid in my own house” because her husband had been drinking for the past 12 weeks.
She also claimed he is aggressive and intimidating.
The man was not present or represented for the brief hearing.
Judge Desmond Zaidan granted a protection order and adjourned the matter to April 13 for a fuller hearing.
