Clear contest rules for jailed respondents

When a temporary protection order is served on someone in custody and a longer order is requested, the order must include clear notice. It must explain that the person can contest by filing a short written response within 14 calendar days. The response only says whether they contest and must follow the facility’s filing rules. If no timely response and the person is still in custody on the hearing date, the court may hold the hearing without them and may grant the longer order. This applies to orders issued on or after October 1, 2025.
