What did it take for Ioan to get the DVRO? - Alice Evans & Ioan Gruffudd - Attorney Analysis
The DVRO is what sets this case apart from a run-of-the mill divorce, so that's where we're starting the deep dive. First, a look at the standards and process for obtaining a DVRO and what the DVRO that Ioan Gruffudd obtained prevents Alice from doing. Ioan's evidence had to prove harassment by clear and convincing evidence, so what is harassment? We know that Alice didn't show up to the DVRO hearing or file any opposition to Ioan's petition despite having six months to do so and a lawyer representing her for most of that time period; but Ioan still had to meet the "clear and convincing" standard to get the order, it doesn't issue just by default. The order tells us specifically what Alice is prohibited from doing, so we know that whatever she allegedly did that resulted in two criminal charges of violating the DVRO being filed against her violated one or more of those restrictions. The criminal case is still pending and Alice is presumed innocent of those charges. But, by contrast, the DVRO allegations have been finally adjudicated, and this will have downstream consequences for her potential legal strategies.
