I went to court two years ago to take an emergency prohibited steps order against my ex from removing kids from anyone that i have left them with, including school and removing them out of the country. is there a time limit for this, do i need to renew it? or does it last until he tries to go to court to get it changed? some background - history of dv and rape - arrested for both plus child cruelty but no charge as yet. no contact for two years. but just worried and want to know
