Can I have my West Virginia protective order changed, extended or canceled in another state?

If West Virginia was the state you moved from, you can fax a “Motion to Terminate” your order to family court and depending on the seriousness of the situation, a hearing might be set.

West Virginia also has an automatic extension of an order process. This process does not require a hearing. When a 90 day order is granted, anytime before the 90 day period is over, you can file to have the order extended to 180 days. There is a one page form that you will have to fill out and file with the circuit court clerk’s office.
