F. In determining what, if any, contact between a person and the principal is in the principal's best interest, the court shall consider all factors that are relevant to the principal's health, safety and welfare, including the following:

1. 1. The past and present relationship between the principal and the person whose contact is being considered.
2. 2. If the principal has sufficient mental capacity to make an intelligent choice, the wishes of the principal.
3. 3. The mental and physical health of the principal and the person whose contact is being considered.

4. 4. Whether the person whose contact is being considered has committed any of the following:

   1. (a) Act involving domestic violence as defined in section 13-3601.
   2. (b) Child abuse.
   3. (c) Abuse, neglect or exploitation of a vulnerable adult.
5. 5. Whether the person whose contact is being considered has abused drugs or alcohol or has been convicted of any drug offense listed in title 13, chapter 34 or a violation of title 28, chapter 4, article 3.
6. 6. Whether the person whose contact is being considered is listed in the elder abuse central registry pursuant to section 46-457 or is required to register pursuant to section 13-3821.
7. 7. Whether the person whose contact is being considered has been convicted of a violation of section 13-2907.02 or 13-2907.04.

G. On the filing of a petition under this section, the court:

1. 1. Shall appoint an attorney or guardian ad litem, or both for the principal.
2. 2. May appoint an investigator as provided under section 14-5308 or a physician, or both, to evaluate the principal and submit a written report to the court before the hearing.
3. 3. May enter any other temporary order that the court determines is necessary and appropriate to protect the wishes or best interests of the principal, including an order exercising the power of a guardian or appointing a temporary guardian as provided under section 14-5310.
4. 4. May issue, without notice, a temporary protective order that limits, restricts or prohibits contact between the principal and another person if the petition is supported by a written statement or report of a physician, psychologist, physician assistant or registered nurse who has recently evaluated the principal and the court finds, based on the statement or report and other specific facts shown by affidavit or verified petition, reasonable grounds to believe that contact between the principal and the person before the matter can be heard would result in immediate and irreparable injury, loss or damage to the principal. The temporary protective order expires on the date prescribed by the court but not later than fourteen days after the order is entered, unless within that time the court extends the order for good cause shown or the person whose contact is limited, restricted or prohibited consents to the extension. If the temporary protective order is issued, the court shall require that the petition and order be personally served on the principal and the person whose contact is the subject of the order within the time ordered by the court but not more than seventy-two hours after entry of the order. If the court issues a temporary protective order without notice, the principal or the person whose contact has been limited, restricted or prohibited may file a motion requesting that the order be dissolved or modified. The person filing the motion shall cause a copy of the motion to be personally served on the agent and any other person the court orders. The court shall proceed to hear and determine the motion as expeditiously as possible.

L. The court may temporarily modify or suspend a contact order without notice only if both of the following apply:

1. 1. It clearly appears from specific facts shown in the motion or affidavit that immediate and irreparable injury, loss or damage likely will result if the order is not issued before the affected persons can be heard in opposition.
2. 2. The moving party or the moving party's attorney certifies to the court in writing the efforts, if any, that the moving party or the moving party's attorney has made to give the notice or the reasons supporting the claim that notice should not be required.
