Notification of a petitioner upon service of a harassment restraining order required.
Committee report, to adopt and re-refer to Public Safety Finance and Policy
Summary
The bill adds a new subsection to Minnesota’s restraining‑order law. It requires sheriffs or other peace officers, when a petitioner asks, to make reasonable efforts—such as texting, calling, or emailing—to inform the petitioner at least 24 hours before the respondent is served with a temporary or permanent harassment restraining order. This advance notice helps petitioners prepare for the service.
