I had a restraining order but foolishly dropped it and allowed him to move back in 2 months ago. Yes, a new one is necessary and I'm worried I will not be able to obtain it again because I let him come home after dropping it the first time. I can get him out on Apr 1st and we still have a court date set for Apr 25th for "a family offense" or whatever that means. I am trying to play along until then.
NO. Absolutely do NOT wait. Go to the cops RIGHT NOW. Just because you dropped the first one, that does not in any way shape or form mean you don't have a right for a new one. You have a police report for the incident when he punched the counter. Take that to the Town Judge and get an A Order (blocking him entirely from the residence).

Please call the domestic violence hotline or a near by crisis center. I don't know where in Upstate you are, the Vera House in Syracuse is a wealth of information.

You need this man out of your house now.
