S 1604 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Provides for immediate notification to a complainant of the service of an ex parte order of protection

This bill requires courts to immediately notify complainants when an ex parte order of protection is served on the person against whom the complaint was filed. Complainants must specify their preferred notification method (mail, phone, email, or other electronic means) to the court clerk, and courts must inform them of this option. Once police or court staff serve the order, they must immediately inform the court clerk, who then notifies the complainant in their chosen manner without delay. The law directly affects individuals seeking protection orders in domestic violence or similar cases, ensuring they receive timely updates about the service of the order.
