What are Emergency Risk Protection Orders?

Emergency Risk Protection Orders, also known as ERPOs, are legal mechanisms that aim to protect individuals and communities from potential harm. These orders are specifically designed to temporarily restrict the access to firearms, ammunition, or other deadly weapons from individuals who pose an immediate risk to themselves or others due to mental illness, violent behavior, or other compelling factors.

The Purpose of ERPOs

The primary objective of ERPOs is to prevent tragedies and reduce the risk of gun violence. By providing a legal means to temporarily remove access to firearms, ERPOs can help save lives, particularly in situations where an individual's behavior raises significant concerns about their potential for violence. ERPOs empower law enforcement and concerned family members to take proactive measures to protect individuals in crisis and the broader community.

How ERPOs Work

To initiate an ERPO, concerned individuals, such as family members or law enforcement officers, can petition the court outlining their reasons for believing that the subject poses a significant risk of harm to themselves or others. Based on the evidence presented, the court will evaluate the request and, if granted, issue a temporary order. Following the temporary order, a hearing will be conducted to determine whether the order should be extended or terminated.
