California Order on Request for Release of Minor's Confidential Information — Domestic Violence is a court order issued by a California court that allows for the release of confidential information of a minor who is a victim of domestic violence. This order is used to protect the minor's safety by allowing the release of confidential information to a third party. The information released to the third party can include information about the minor's medical condition, mental health, educational history, and other pertinent information. There are two types of this order: an ex parte order and a permanent order. An ex parte order is issued without a hearing and only lasts for a certain amount of time, typically 30 days. A permanent order is issued after a hearing and lasts until the court orders otherwise. The information released to the third party is determined by the court and must be relevant to the minor's safety.
