FAQ
The restraining order process for civil harassment cases Ask for a restraining order. You will complete and turn in court papers. Serve the other side. The other side (person you want protection from) must be served with (given) the court papers filed with the court. Go to court. Finish the case.
To ask the sheriff to serve your papers, you must have an address or location for the other side (restrained person). If the other side is in jail, the sheriff can serve them. If the other side is in prison in California, prison staff, not the sheriff, will serve your papers.
Substituted service The server tries to serve the papers in person several times (usually 3 or more) but can't find the person. They try at different times when the person might be home or at work. If the server can't find them, they can leave the papers with another adult at the person's home or work.
