It depends. I live in Missouri. I am able to call the respondent, but only to discuss custody matters with our children. In most cases, you may not call the respondent because that would be violating the order of protection. Something many people do not understand is that you can get in trouble for violating the order of protection you have against someone.
In legal contexts, the petitioner is the party who initiates a lawsuit or brings a case before a court, seeking a specific outcome or remedy. The respondent, on the other hand, is the party who responds to the claims made by the petitioner in a legal proceeding.
The Petitioner is the one that files the claim or call for action & the respondent is the one that the claim is against or the opponent.
One who responds in legal proceedings is typically referred to as a "respondent." In the context of a lawsuit, the respondent is the party who answers the complaint or petition filed by another party, known as the plaintiff or petitioner. The respondent provides their defense or response to the claims made against them.
If the respondent does not want to be served, it is really not up to the petitioner to locate him. What the court wants is a concerted effort in locating the respondent so that later the respondent cannot say that no effort was made. Keep a journal of your efforts to show the court. Make an entry for every phone call, every address check, every mutual friend you talk to, every possible employer you contact, etc. You can relay this information then to the court as you learn about the individual's whereabouts, but it probably will not result in the individual being served.
I would call one of those phone lines that offer free legal advice, or I would contact a lawyer and ask them
the answerer i think..............The respondent.

A person who answers a survey is typically referred to as a respondent. They provide their feedback, opinions, or information in response to the survey questions.
It likely varies from state-to-state. If you have a copy of the order it should say, or you could call your local Police department and ask. If you live in Washington state and you have a child(ren) under the age of 16 and living in your house, then yes, they are typically included in the protection order. Still, be safe. If you're not sure they are included, have a Judge add them on it.An order of protection doesn't really protect anyone. It just makes rules that the respondent is expected to follow, and if they don't follow those rules, they can be thrown in prison without the benefit of a trial. The order of protection applies only to people and places listed on the order. -Tim
The person who brings a lawsuit is called the Plaintiff or Petitioner.
A person who answers a questionnaire is often referred to as a respondent.
Yes, they can. For instance: if you are resticted to mantaining your distance from them, or restrained from contacting them by phone - yet THEY commit these acts themselves, they too are in violation of the court's order.
