Is it possible to be restricted within a certain location without imposing on a person's constitutional rights? And for a family matter? I could see restrictions on security risks or something like that but for things dealing with family court? Is it true?

If the court awarded a protection order or a harassment injunction then, yes, it is legal to restrict the respondent from being in the same area as the petitioner.

Yes - as stated above - it can be a condition of bail. Also, on parole and probation - there are restrictions about leaving the county you live in.

Granted, if someone is doing what they are supposed to do on probation - and all their monies, CSR, classes, etc are taken care of. Then yea, we let them go with a travel permit. But we do not have to. And, I have seen Judge's tell people that under no circumstances will they be given a permit until they get their act together.

Yes. As long as the due process provision of the 5th Amendment is followed, it can be done.

If you have questions about a specific case, you should consult a lawyer.
