What else can I help you with?
if a petition for visitation was filed a hearing was held but the respondent avoided being served and the law master gave the petitioner 120 days to locate her how does the petitioner get the process server to reserve the respondent ?
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.

Are there any laws in Illinois that will protect respondent when the petitioner in an order of protection contacts the respondent and petitioner also violates original divorce decree?
Question is not really worded clearly. However - the same order that prevents the respondant from contacting the petitioner also protects the respondant from being contacted by the petitioner. THey are in equal violation and can be sanctioned by the court that issued the order. The petitioner can NOT contact and harass the respondant just because the petitioner thinks they are 'protected.' However, even if the petitioner can be proven to be violating the divorce decree that is a separate issue from the protection order which will have to be handled as a contempt matter.
In cases that reach the Supreme Court on certiorari does the Petitioner bring the case against the Respondent?
Yes. The Petitioner (or Appellant) brings his or her case against the Respondent (or Appellee). The Petitioner is the one who files a petition for a writ of certiorari.Usually, this means the Petitioner lost in the intermediate Court of Appeals, but there have been occasional instances where the winning party files first, in anticipation of the decision being challenged. This strategy is sometimes employed because the Petitioner gets to present his (or her) case first, and may reserve a portion of his allotted 30 minutes for rebuttal after the Respondent has argued. Having an opportunity to rebut the opponent's argument can present a significant advantage.
