Abstract: 

A summary of important appellate rulings from around the country focused on the terms of orders of protection arising from incidents of stalking. In Kansas, the state Court of Appeals ruled that violation of a protective order was not a “lesser included crime to a crime of stalking and affirmed convictions on both counts; and in Georgia, a former spouse was successfully prosecuted for stalking his ex-wife, and the Georgia court of appeals upheld a challenge to the conviction.
