JAMES C. GULOTTA, Justice Pro Tempore[*]

At issue in this case is whether the trial court was vested with authority to issue a protective order against the plaintiff ex-husband when no petition had been filed by the defendant seeking such an order. We think not and conclude that the protective order in favor of the defendant was erroneously issued.
