| Summary: | 碩士 === 南臺科技大學 === 財經法律研究所 === 103 === In the traditional society, women are always under men’s control. As women are aware of their right, they no longer bear domestic violence. To decrease domestic violence, “Domestic Violence Prevention Act” is built up to protect the victims. Although the Act is established with good intention, the number of domestic violence doesn’t obviously diminish. The victim is still hit by the abused after petitioning for a civil protection order. Waiting for the judge to issue a civil protection order becomes a window period for the victim to get protected. There are four points found that leads to the issuance window period of civil protection orders in this study. First, it’s difficult for the victim to approve the facts of being injured by the abused. Second, the judge doesn’t issue the civil protection orders to the victim rapidly. Third, it takes too much time to investigate the facts of domestic violence because of the lack of professional staves. Fourth, it is important to protect the victims from being hurt again before they get civil protection orders. In the process of study, we found that it can’t completely stop the abused from assaulting the victims after the court allow to issue the civil protection orders. As a result, this study gives some suggestions which referring to foreign provisions of protection orders and practical courses of action. The following suggestions are: (1) Take on more professionals to reduce the volume of business; (2) Improve the personnel’s expertise; (3) Cooperate with each department; (4) Permit police or social workers to issue civil protection orders; (5) Follow-up the status of the abused and the victim regularly; (6) Burden the abused with stiffer penalties to reduce the recidivism rate of domestic violence.
