The restraining order will go into effect as stated on the form. It looks much better if you show up in court. Judges take it as if you agree/don't care otherwise. Ask my ex-husband!!

Is a petitioner in contemp if they do not have the respondent served?

How can you proceed with a civil suit with only one side present? It greatly depends on how the judge views the situation. If you filed a civil suit BUT NEVER SERVED THE RESPONDANT just how did you expect the respondant to know about the case and show up in court. On the day of the case when you, your attorney and the judge show up - the judge may well consider that you abused not only HIS time but the court's time as well, he quite possibly MIGHT find you in contempt of court and fine you.


What if you don't show up for court hearing for child support because you were not served notice of the hearing?

It depends on the reason you did not show up. If you received notice and didn't appear, the court will issue a default judgment against you. If you had no notice and the court has no proof of service then you may be able to file a motion to vacate due to your not being served a summons.
