The woman said that is husband said he would kill her if she tried to take their son away.
The court heard that the man had previously fallen down the stairs while he was drunk.
Judge Desmond Zaidan said he would grant an interim protection order which will be served on her husband by the gardaí.
He adjourned the matter for a fuller hearing to April 11 next.
