Civil Standby Procedure Guide
Summary
If you have been served a restraining order and need to arrange a civil standby, contact your local sheriffs office to schedule a time. They can confirm the order with the court, so you do not need to pick it up at the courthouse. This process allows you to safely collect personal belongings from your residence. Ensure you follow all legal instructions and consult with a local attorney if you have further questions or need personalized legal advice.Full Conversation
I recently was served a restraining order and given * minutes to gather some things from my place of residence. Then the judge at court issued me a civil standby. Do i have to pick that order up at the courthouse or can i just call the sheriff's office to set a time to have the civil standby done and they will be able to confirm the judge issue one to me from their end?
You should contact the sheriff's office to set up a time for the civil standby. They can confirm the order with the court.
