Supreme Court of Vermont
Jennifer Townsend v. Cody Townsend
July 17, 20262026 VT 32
Summary
The Vermont Supreme Court reversed the trial court’s denial of the plaintiff’s motion to extend a relief‑from‑abuse (RFA) order, holding that probation conditions do not substitute for an RFA order because the two serve different purposes; the case was remanded for further proceedings consistent with that ruling.
