Option 1

 * Article title:Restraining order - Wikipedia
 * Article Evaluation:It is a good article overall, but some of the information is out of date. There is not much information about how different things can play a role in restraining orders. They also don't mention the Lautenberg amendment.
 * Sources:Lyons, Adhia, A., Moe, C., Kernic, M. A., Rowhani-Rahbar, A., & Rivara, F. P. (2021).   Firearms and protective orders in intimate partner homicides. Journal of Family Violence, 36(5), 587–596. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10896-020-00165-1

Option 2

 * Article title:Domestic violence in the United States - Wikipedia
 * Article Evaluation:I think it a lot of good information, but some of the information is out of date. There needs to be more information about the Lautenberg amendment and how each state has their own version of that law. There also needs to be more discussion about mandatory arrest laws, mostly updating the information already there. I also didn't see any sections about restraining orders. They also don't talk about how all 50 states have different laws regarding domestic violence.

(2010).            Women with protective orders report failure to remove firearms from their abusive partners: results from an exploratory study. Journal of Women’s Health (Larchmont, N.Y. 2002), 19(1), 93–98. https://doi.org/10.1089/jwh.2007.0530

Option 3

 * Article title:Domestic Violence Offender Gun Ban - Wikipedia
 * Article Evaluation:It has a lot of good information and really relates to my topic since part of my topic focuses on how firearms play a role in to domestic violence. The Lautenberg Amendment has to do with the gun ban for people convicted of misdemeanor domestic assault. I think there can be more information about how the states deal with the Lautenberg amendment or more information on how the Lautenberg Amendment affects restraining orders.
