About Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs)

An ERPO is used to protect an individual from themselves.  It does this by removing access to their firearms for a short time.

• ERPOs are used when someone is at risk of harming themselves or others.

• ERPOs are filed by a close family member, certain care workers, or government agencies.

A Personal Protection Order (PPO/PROG/MROG) differs from an ERPO.

• It is used to protect an individual from another's behavior.
• A PPO does this by stopping contact and mandating physical separation.
