Question: 1 / 400

Under what circumstances is an individual subject to arrest by an officer for Violation of Protection Order?

If the offense is committed in the officer's presence

An individual is subject to arrest by an officer for Violation of Protection Order if the offense is committed in the officer's presence. This means that if the officer witnesses firsthand the violation of the protection order by the individual, they have the authority to make an immediate arrest without the need for a warrant.

Options B, C, and D are not correct because a victim's request for arrest, the issuance of a warrant, or the individual being a protected person do not determine the circumstances under which an individual can be arrested for Violation of Protection Order. The key factor is the commission of the offense in the officer's presence, giving them the legal basis to make an arrest.
