A petition for a restraining order must normally be filed in the same county where the defendant lives, because the court must have personal jurisdiction over the defendant.

How long does it take to remove a restraining order?
you have to serve someone a restraining order for 1 weekAnother View: "YOU" don't serve the individual - the Sheriff's Office or a court officer serves them. If they purposely avoid the service of the order it may prove problematic because, legally, they cannot be held in contempt of the order if it cannot be proven that it was served on them.HOWEVER- you can bet that SOMEONE knows where they are or where they work - call the Sheriffs Office and let them know. OR - or if they show up wherever you are, call law enforcement and when they arrive advise them that there is an outstanding un-served court order for this person. They will take care of having it served on them.

Not a good idea. If the individual trying to serve you was unable to do so the first time around it is unlikely that they will just give up. It is true that they have to serve you however there are many ways to serve an individual (home, work, substitute) and they will likely find a way or the court will allow them to serve you by mail or some other form.
Can you file for a restraining order and not serve it and the restrained person still lived with you.And years later serve a DV-130 that is part of the 1st Restraining Order that was not served?
"You," as an individual, don't serve the other party nor do you have any say-so in the matter. If the order was issued by the court it is then forwarded to the Sheriff's Office for service.Most (all?) states have a certain time period (statute of limitations) during which court orders remain valid. If the original order was never served on the individual (for whatever reason), then there is no legal restraint upon their actions.You must check with your local court or sheriff's office to determine the statute in your particular state.The second part of your question hinges on the answer to your finding out this information.However - from the information disclosed in the question (i.e.: you voluntarily continued to live with the person) it is in serious doubt that it would be applicable.
