Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Louisiana

I am currently living in Louisiana and have family who lives in Colorado. Because of a family disagreement, my brother in law, who lives in Colorado, began calling me making threats of physical violence towards me and my family. I am concerned for the safety of me and my family both in Louisiana and in Colorado. I have recorded messages he left with my answering service that very clearly indicate he is willing to hurt me and my family. I know there are different types of restraining orders I can petition for in both Louisiana and in Colorado but do not know where to start. Can you advise? Thanks.

Since the calls are being made in Colorado, you need to start there. Also, contact the phone company and explain. They can prevent him from calling you and possibly having a phone at all.
