How a protective order is delivered and enforced
A protective order must be given to the person it restrains, either in person or by certified mail. If that person was in court when the order was issued, they are considered to have notice. The court can order police to serve the order, go with the protected person to their home, and put them in possession of it. The court clerk must send the order to the police within 24 hours.
