Consider the entry of orders for the protection of the victim, including those set
out within this chapter; (2)
Order restitution as warranted;

An official copy of current and past criminal history;
All violence history whether or not it resulted in a conviction;
Family and cultural issues;
Substance abuse issues; and
A treatment plan that adequately and appropriately addresses the
treatment needs of the individual;
b)
The intake may not be based solely on the defendant’s self-report and the
evaluator must make reasonable efforts to contact the victim. The defendant must sign
privacy releases for the evaluator to obtain any confidential information that is necessary
to the evaluation; c)
Satisfactory completion of domestic violence treatment required under this
section must be based on meeting treatment goals, not merely the completion of a certain

violence and holding the defendant accountable for his or her behavior. The treatment
must include education about the individual, family, and cultural dynamics of domestic
violence. Treatment must include education about the effects of domestic violence on
children. The defendant must sign privacy releases for the treatment provider to obtain
any confidential information that is necessary to the treatment. The defendant must also
sign a release for the treatment provider to provide information to the Prosecutor or
probation office in order to monitor compliance with the Court order; and

In the Court’s discretion, order any other lawful relief as it deems necessary for
the protection of any claimed, alleged or potential victim of domestic violence or family
violence, including orders or directives to the Wind River Police Department.
