Summary
Summary
The Family and Juvenile Law Advisory Committee recommends adopting two forms, approving one information form, and revising an information form and one other form to implement the provisions in Assembly Bill 2694 (Stats. 2018, ch. 219). The bill allows for alternative service for domestic violence restraining order requests when, after diligent efforts, personal service has not been accomplished and there is reason to believe that the person to be served is evading service.
