Not really, if I posted her emails here. The first two saying I owe her money and she's going to take me to court and she's going to make me pay  by using the insults I said three months ago against me.
The 3rd email was her saying whatever, forget about it, she's just not gonna deal with me anymore.
I'm guessing because I gave no response after emails two and three that made her really mad, leaving the fourth email, Her threats of a for sure protection order and lies about stuff I did not do to obviously "show" the court she's a victim.

I'll only say that a RO in any state is also valid in my state. AZ law may be less severe though. Lets say OP gets an order against him in state A, lives in state B and comes to California and brings a gun. in California he would be a prohibited person subject to arrest for prohibit person possess firearm, prohibited person possess ammo and violation of a court order.

Forget about the RO.  Stop all contact, you'll get nothing but problems from any further correspondence.  She should not be able to find a contact for you.

Probably empty threats.  She needs $.  She's trying to find it anywhere she thinks she can get it.  Sounds like she's an ex for a reason, and part of that reason is probably that she was a manipulative bitch who would stoop to any level to get her way....

Actually no not even once. I don't think I ever saw her when I wasn't dating someone. Most times I would drive 2 hours (before she moved) to spend all day with her son and family (mom, sister, niece). We'd have fun all day and as soon as my ex came home from work I'd leave. Sometimes we would talk but never really comfortable.

This.  OP is stupid enough (sorry man...just trying to keep it real) to keep in touch with his ex of four years...she's figuring that she can talk him out of some money.  There's no f*****g restraining order unless the OP left out some details. ex. He actually threatened his ex.

I don't care how female centered the criminal justice system is (I dealt with it during my divorce)...the only way a magistrate, judge, etc. is going to grant an RO in a situation like this (the OP is geographically separated by a significant distance from his ex) is if there was an threat communicated by the OP.

I had a $h1t show of a divorce with a woman that would have pulled the same stunt with me if I had let her.  You have to cut her off. Period.  With no kids, there's no f*****g excuse to be in communication with a woman that you divorced four years ago...unless you still have feelings for her and want to get back together with her.  No joke...I've known two people that have done that.  If that's the case...good luck with that.

In Missouri, Temporary Restraining Orders are granted almost immediately based on the Petitioner's statements about the need for them.

They are not enforceable unless the respondent has been served with it. They have 72 hours to be served, or it dies/gets pulled.

Once served, there will be a court hearing scheduled within 30 days. The Judge will hear arguments from both sides and determine if a Full Order of Protection is required or if the TRO should be dropped.

If only one party shows up to the hearing, the Judge finds for that party.

I have no idea how a Restraining Order could be filed across State lines, or how such a thing would be enforceable, but I'm not a lawyer either.

TRO's & FOP's work on both parties. Petitioner gets a TRO against the Respondent and later calls Respondent,(or texts, or emails, etc), then the Petitioner has just violated the TRO and can get arrested for Felony Violating an Ex Parte (Missouri term for TRO). I've made that arrest before, and it gets entertaining.

Get a lawyer just to hash out your State's laws about this.

Here's what's actually going on:
Ex-wife is in need of money. Ex-wife is using a threat to extort money from OP.
To OP: Look, dummy, she's an EX-wife for a reason. Stop dicking around and put her in the rear view. There isn't a restraining order, nor is there going to be one. Please understand that for an "order of protection" to be issued there has to be a threat or a possibility of violence involved. Her going to a judge and saying that she's afraid of you when you are "on the other side of the country" is not going to fly with just about any judge anywhere. Until you actually see a piece of paperwork with your name on it, stop fucking worrying about it, ya idiot. It's a bluff to frighten you into giving her money.
Now, print off all emails and document everything. Never, ever again have any contact with her. If she send you more emails, print them off and archive in your account. Do not respond, ignore any attempts at phone contact.
Should you somehow find yourself holding a restraining order with your name on it, THEN contact attorney and start going through all the stuff required to comply. Otherwise, calm the fuck down. Stop hyperventilating at some windy threat by a greedy bitch.

Restraining order is not valid until served. If the officer can't find you to serve it it will eventually die and you will be gtg. Save her threats and document her lies as best you can. Sell you gun collection to someone you trust to sell them back if you win your case in the end.

Judges can do whatever they want. Judge can choose to believe her despite evidence. I worked with a guy (LEO). He had RO against the ex who filed to have it lifted. The judge allowed some shennanigans and the lifted the order and flipped onto him. He sat for months until the judge finally agreed to lift he order so he could go back to work but refused to return his gun collection....?

So he could have his gun to work but he could not have the rest of his shit... He eventually lost it all because he had to file bank ruptcy and the lawyers ended up calling buddies to come buy his shit at auction... It was complete BS

Ex saves the emails and threatens you with a restraining order unless you pony up for the bills.

I'm fairly certain that some states do TRO/PO process thru Fam Court. Pretty sure NV is.like that.

I helped a female friend whose landlord was stalking and threatening her get one in NV, and IIRC it was all family Court.  They were never "together."

It was a few years ago, though, and it wasn't exactly the trial of the century.

My point is that she just TOLD him she was getting one.  Until there is a legally served document, there is no reason to take any action.

Two lessons learned here:

Advice: OP if you like a little risk, rent a storage unit for cash and stash the guns there.  Give the key to a friend, or not.

However what happens when I first get the order? She stated that because we were married this is going to be some kind of domestic violence thing, there was no domestic violence in the relationship.  

Will this order affect me until I can get it voided?  Does it affect my guns until I can see the judge? I've looked online but I get two different answers.

Should I get a restraining order against her immediately?

You getting a counter order isn't going to affect the Order she got against you.
Once her Order I served on you, it is in effect and enforceable. That includes all provisions of the Order, including surrender of firearms.
She's probably getting the Order through Family Court, which requires no arrest. It just requires that the parties were in an intimate relationship or had kids in common.....

You need to talk to a lawyer sooner rather than later.

Went through this same shit while I was separating. She alleged a bunch of stuff in writing to get a restraining order against me (verbal argument, but she made up some physical shit that was later discounted), and she said "Oh yeah, there are guns in the house too", so they came and took control of my weapons. I wasn't in the house at the time, so I didn't really have a say in the matter, but I did speak with the officer who came and got them, met her at the station, got a receipt for them, and picked up them months later without issue once it was all resolved. One of the officers who walked me to my car with my rifle (they took it without the case so they didn't want me walking out of the courthouse with a rifle in hand) even offered to buy it, but I told him it wasn't for sale.

ETA: The point of all that was to say that I was respectful, didn't mouth off to anyone, and got my guns back no problem.
