...The wife had the right to voluntarily dismiss the dissolution action. The domestic violence injunction action The wife's right to voluntarily dismiss the action for a domestic violence injunction presents a thornier issue, but the result is the same. Section 741.30, Florida Statutes (1999), creates a private right of action for an injunction against domestic violence. Any person who is the victim of domestic violence as defined in the statute may file a sworn petition for an injunction for protection against domestic violence. See § 741.30(1)(a). The respondent must be personally served with the petition and notice of hearing. See § 741.30(4). Under circumstances where it appears that an immediate and present danger of domestic violence exists, the court may grant a temporary injunction, ex parte, pending the full hearing. See § 741.30(5)(a)....

...for writ of prohibition. In his petition, Walker sought to prevent Judge E. Randolph Bentley from exercising his power of indirect criminal contempt to punish Walker's alleged violation of a domestic violence injunction, which was issued pursuant to section 741.30, Florida Statutes (Supp.1994)....
...In denying Walker's petition, the district court found that the legislature has no authority to limit a circuit court judge's inherent power of contempt, as it apparently attempted to do by restricting the circuit court's jurisdiction to the use of civil contempt in enforcing injunctions issued under section
741.30. In reaching its decision, the district court certified the following two questions as being of great public importance: IS THE WORD "SHALL" AS USED IN SECTION
741.30(8)(a), FLORIDA STATUTES (SUPP.1994), TO BE INTERPRETED AS MANDATORY RATHER THAN AS PERMISSIVE OR DIRECTORY? IF INTERPRETED AS MANDATORY, IS SECTION
741.30(8)(a), FLORIDA STATUTES (SUPP.1994), AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL ENCROACHMENT ON THE CONTEMPT POWER OF THE JUDICIARY IN VIOLATION OF ARTICLE II, SECTION 3 OF THE FLORIDA CONSTITUTION?
660 So.2d at 321. We have jurisdiction. Art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const. For the reasons expressed, we approve the well-reasoned opinion of the district court and answer the first question by finding that the word "shall" in section
741.30(8)(a) is to be interpreted as directory rather than mandatory. Our answer to the first question renders the second certified question moot. Section
741.30 creates a cause of action for and enforcement of injunctions for protection against domestic violence....
...Pertinent to this appeal is the 1994 amendment to the statute in which the legislature attempted to eliminate a circuit judge's use of indirect criminal contempt to enforce domestic violence injunction violations. Specifically, the legislature amended section 741.30 to provide in pertinent part as follows: (8)(a) The court shall enforce, through a civil contempt proceeding, a violation of an injunction for protection which is not a criminal violation under s....
...ples of statutory analysis impose a duty on the courts to interpret a statute so that it withstands constitutional scrutiny. Thus, the district court found it necessary to interpret the phrase " shall enforce, through a civil contempt proceeding" in section 741.30(8)(a) as being directory rather than mandatory for the statute to withstand constitutional scrutiny....
...By interpreting the word "shall" as directory only, we ensure that circuit court judges are able to use their inherent power of indirect criminal contempt to punish domestic violence injunction violations when necessary while at the same time ensuring that section 741.30 as a whole remains intact....
...Given our conclusion that the legislature cannot eliminate the court's indirect criminal contempt power, we find the underlined portion of section
741.2901(2) to be unconstitutional. This provides the consistency necessary to allow section
741.2901 to be read in conjunction with section
741.30(8)(a). Accordingly, we approve the decision of the district court and answer the first question by finding that the word "shall" in section
741.30(8)(a) is to be interpreted as directory rather than mandatory....

We hold that Rule 1.610 should not be utilized to obtain an injunction against domestic violence. Our legislature specifically enacted section 741.30 of the Florida Statutes to enable a victim to seek an injunction for that purpose. [1] For procedural reasons, section 741.30 of the Florida Statutes should be the exclusive method to obtain an injunction for protection against domestic violence. Paragraph (d) of the form petition set forth in section 741.30(2)(b) reads, "The following describes any other cause of action currently pending between the petitioner and respondent:"....

When the petitioner alleges domestic violence the reason for the lack of notice is apparent to the trial judge. Nevertheless, we conclude that the wife's petition substantially followed the form outlined in section 741.30(4)(b) and should be considered to be a petition filed pursuant to section 741.30(2)(b).

ANALYSIS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE LEGISLATION In 1984, the legislature substantially revised section 741.30, Florida Statutes (1983), by creating a simplified, expedited procedure for obtaining from a circuit court an injunction for protection against domestic violence.

Carl Peter Baumgartner appeals the trial court's "Judgment of Attorney's Fees" entered in an action to obtain an injunction for protection against domestic violence pursuant to section 741.30, Florida Statutes (1995)....
...Recently, this court affirmed the basic injunction, but reversed portions of the injunction that interfered with a German court's authority to resolve child custody issues. Baumgartner v. Baumgartner,
691 So.2d 488 (Fla. 2d DCA 1997). We now reverse the award of attorneys' fees because neither section
741.30 nor chapter 61, Florida Statutes (1995), provides a basis for the fees in this case....
...The couple had a domestic altercation on April 3, 1996, over who would use their condominium and who would have custody of the children during this vacation. As a result of the altercation, on April 4, 1996, Mrs. Baumgartner petitioned for an injunction for protection against domestic violence pursuant to section 741.30....
...Baumgartner's attorneys filed their motion for fees. After a hearing in June, the trial court entered its final judgment solely for the purpose of awarding Mrs. Baumgartner attorneys' fees in the amount of $7,972.62. The cause of action created in section 741.30 does not provide for an award of attorneys' fees. Moreover, the statute clearly contemplates a streamlined pro se proceeding. It expressly mandates that clerks of court shall "assist" the petitioners in seeking the injunction. § 741.30(2)(c), Fla.Stat. (1995).
