Request For Waiver Of Appearance {CC-DC-DV 19}

CC-DC-DV-019 - REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF APPEARANCE. This form is used in Maryland by a petitioner who has filed for protection from domestic violence and has been granted a temporary protective order. It allows the petitioner to formally ask the court to waive their requirement to appear at the scheduled hearing for a final protective order until the respondent has been properly served with the petition and temporary order. The petitioner must confirm that the hearing was continued due to lack of service on the respondent and agrees to several conditions, including promptly notifying the court of any change in contact information, registering with the VINE Protective Order Service Program (VPO) to receive updates about service, and confirming the rescheduled hearing date once service has been completed. If granted, the court order relieves the petitioner from appearing at the hearing until proper service occurs, and the clerk is directed to mail any new extended temporary orders. www.FormsWorkflow.com
