A filled-in Form CC-DC-DV-007 example: a petitioner reports a violated protective order

Form CC-DC-DV-007 example filled out, example: a petitioner reports a violated protective order — Dana Sample files this petition for contempt against Ray Sample. She alleges one violation on 08-14-2026 of the order this court issued, so the out-of-state box stays empty. The picture shows page 1, and every value in it is made up. Dana Sample is the petitioner and Ray Sample is the respondent on the original court order. Ray Sample was served by first-class mail, so hand delivery and service via MDEC stay empty. The Restricted Information box is left blank because the form contains no Restricted Information. Dana knows only Ray Sample's home address and home telephone, so the other lines of Description of alleged violator stay empty. Nothing goes in the jail box because Dana asks only for a finding of contempt and other relief.
