Rhode Island Supreme Court Rules Preponderance Standard Applies to Firearm Protective Orders
The Rhode Island Supreme Court reversed the dissolution of a domestic protective order, ruling that a preponderance of the evidence standard applies even when temporary firearm restrictions are imposed under the Protect Rhode Island Families Act. The decision clarifies the evidentiary standard for such proceedings, rejecting a higher clear and convincing evidence threshold, and remands the case for a new hearing.
