Dating violence under Florida law refers to violence between two individuals involved in an intimate or romantic relationship that was significant and continued for some extended period of time within the last six months.
Dating violence does not include ordinary relations, whether business or social, between two individuals who did not engage in or have an expectation of engaging in intimate or sexual relations. An order for protection from dating violence is only appropriate when a battery, assault, stalking, kidnapping or false imprisonment allegation is made.
