MI SB0810

Establishes that personal protection orders (other than ex parte orders) must expire no later than 5 years after issuance and may be renewed for additional 5-year periods.

Allows courts to issue permanent personal protection orders without expiration dates if the restrained individual has been convicted of a domestic violence felony or misdemeanor, or has been found to have violated a protection order on more than one occasion.

Updates statutory references and subsection numbering throughout MCL 600.2950 to accommodate the new expiration date provisions.

Requires expiration dates to be stated clearly on the face of personal protection orders, consistent with the new 5-year maximum term.
