The terms protective order and restraining order are generally interchangeable. In some jurisdictions, the term restraining order refers to a civil document that is only enforceable by civil action, while a protective order is enforced by law enforcement. There are different levels of restraining/protective orders depending on the type of harassment or threatening behavior.

Since the harassment involves threats, you should go to the police. They will be able to tell you what your options are and if there are any legal fees required where you live.
