A person targeted by a restraining order does not have the ability, or the right, to contest the reasoning behind the order prior to it being issued. in CA a DV restraining order will result in your firearms being confiscated.

So, in CA, we already have take the guns first, due process second.
I'll be interested to see if this were to stand up to judicial scrutiny. Confiscation like this isn't due process. Were it just to be prevention from acquiring a firearm, that's one thing, or if there is a license required to carry and that being revoked, but confiscation of private property requires due process.
