Expunge a Protective Order in Tippecanoe County – Lafayette Legal Help

Even when a protective order petition is denied or the petitioner doesn’t show up to court, the record can remain visible in:

• The Indiana Protection Order Registry (POR)

• MyCase.in.gov (public court access)

• Law enforcement databases like IDACS and NCIC

These records are public, and they may suggest that you were violent or abusive—even when the case was unfounded.

You may be eligible if:
