I am in California. The Restraining Order was filed in Riverside County.
I will try to keep this short and simple.
An ex-renter of my mother's. Filed a restraining order against my mother, my fiancee, a mutual friend, and me.
He had a friend of his serve my mother with all four of our restraining orders for the hearing. He never properly identified my mother (The court clerk even says my mother was illegally served).
My fiancee and I live two hours from my mother. And the mutual friend no longer lives in California. Nor has my he or my fiancee used my mothers address as their legal address. EVER.
Speed things up. The hearing happened and this ex-tenant was granted a 6 month restraining order against my mother and a year against me.(I called to find out) (He put his hands on my mother and I went after him that's why)
For the restraining order to actually go into effect? Doesn't a real processor and / or sheriff have to serve my mother and I for the restraining order to actually be effective? (Not that it matters we plan to stay away from him)
And if the above is true, for the time it takes to serve my mother and I will the dates of the restraining order be extended to account for the time it took to be served? Or will the dates stay at where the judge granted them?
In theory. If my mother no longer spoke to me and decided to never call and tell me about this paperwork. How am I to legally have known? How can this even be allowed? So if I happen to visit my mother (small town where she and the renter live. - No stop light, one road highway type of town) and I happen to be in the same place as him, but I don't even know this restraining order exist. How can I break the order if I don't know about it, nor was never served?
I tried to make it short. Sorry just wanted to be clear.
Thank you.
