New Jersey A4476 allows courts to issue restraining orders against defendants charged with a crime as a condition of release on bail. The court must issue such orders upon request by a law enforcement officer or prosecutor and submission of a certification describing the location of the offense. The court may forego issuing a restraining order if the defendant establishes by clear and convincing evidence that they lawfully reside at or have legitimate business on or near the place, or otherwise legitimately need to enter the place.
