§ 85.065. EFFECT OF TRANSFER. (a) A protective order
transferred under Section 85.064 has the same effect as if the order
remained in the court that rendered the order. The protective order
may be enforced by the court that receives the order in the same
manner as if the court originally rendered the order.
(b) A protective order that is transferred is enforceable by
contempt or by any other means by which the court that rendered the
order could enforce the order. The court that receives the
protective order may punish a violation of the order regardless of
whether the violation occurred before or after the date of the
transfer.
(c) A protective order that is transferred is subject to
modification by the court that receives the order to the same extent
modification is permitted under Chapter 87 by a court that rendered
the order.
