I disagree that it could be a red flag if brought up properly and honestly. My husband was married once before and his ex had a restraining order on him at one point while they were splitting up. They were both drinkers at the time and it was his only incidence of anything like that.
He's been sober for 9 years now and it was one of the first things we mentioned to our agency when we started classes. We did not want to have to go through the process only to be denied at the end for something like that if it was an automatic denial.
On the contrary, our CW considered it a valuable experience and an example of him overcoming his past. I can only speak for our experience, of course. But I sincerely think that honesty is the best policy.
