I have a temporary Order of Protection issued against an ex-girfriend in New York State. No children, never lived together, etc. She called me on the telephone last nite. I dialed 911 and filled out a report at the scene. Today the police called me to say that they were going to arrest her. I have a pending aggravated harassment case against her which is the reason I was granted the Order. What is the punishment, if any, for a first violation of an Order of Protection. There has been no violence.

Violation of a court order makes the person subject to charges of contempt of court, in addition to any other violations.
What the court chooses to impose as the penalties for contempt can vary, based on how serious the violation was, what happened, and how likely the court is to think it might happen again. It's pretty much all up to the judge.

protection orders are often incredibly particular. If it says "no touch" than e mail must be considered a contravention...the problem might probable must be taken up with the courtroom, in spite of the indisputable fact that, as police are no longer at risk of respond till there is a few coming near near threat. If the order states in basic terms "no actual touch", or would not especially exclude e mail. Then there is not any violation.
