(2) The new restraining order has effect only for the balance of the term for which the old restraining order would have had effect if this Act had not been enacted.

(3) Any proceeding, including an appeal, that may be started by a person because of the making of an old restraining order may, if the time for starting the proceeding has not ended, be started under this Act as if this Act had commenced on the day the old restraining order was made.

(4) If the old restraining order was made in a court other than the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court may extend the period for which the restraining order is to remain in force as if the order had been made under this Act.
