The Barangay Protection Order (BPO) is issued on an ex parte basis by the Punong Barangay to protect victims of abuse. It contains names and addresses of petitioner and respondent, their relationship, circumstances of abuse, and reliefs requested. It is valid for 15 days and prohibits harming or threatening the victim. If the Punong Barangay is unavailable, a Barangay Kagawad may issue the BPO after attesting to the Punong Barangay's unavailability. Copies of the BPO are served and distributed to relevant parties including the petitioner, police, and social services.
