  Upon  conviction of any crime or violation between spouses, parent and

der adjudication, enter an order of protection. Where a temporary  order

ny conviction, shall not exceed the greater of: (i) eight years from the

ration of the maximum term of an indeterminate or the term of a determi-
nate  sentence  of  imprisonment  actually  imposed; or in the case of a
conviction for a class A misdemeanor, shall not exceed five  years  from
the  date  of  such  conviction;  or in the case of a conviction for any
other offense, shall not exceed two years from the date  of  conviction;
OR  IN  THE  CASE  OF  THE ISSUANCE OF AN ORDER OF CONDITIONS, SHALL RUN
