Yes, in Colorado, a minor (a child under the age of 18) can seek a restraining order against an adult, but the process may involve certain legal requirements. In Colorado, this type of restraining order is typically referred to as a "protection order."
However, minors usually need a parent or legal guardian to file on their behalf, since they cannot file legal documents themselves. The process involves demonstrating that there is a legitimate fear of harm or harassment from the adult in question. Once filed, the court will evaluate the evidence and determine whether to grant the protection order.
If you need specific guidance or assistance with a situation involving a restraining order, it's advisable to consult with a legal professional or a local advocacy group that specializes in family law or domestic violence issues.
