WHAT IS A RESTRAINING ORDER?

Jake Losh is a contributing writer for the Legwork Process Servers' Blog.

In preparation for a post that Christi will put out later, I thought it might be beneficial to discuss what a restraining order is and what it isn't.

SHOULD YOU DATE THIS GUY?

    I receive many calls from women asking me to do a background check on a guy they are currently "dating". As much as I love to help, here's a bit of information to save you some time, money and a broken heart.

    Take note: the fact that you are even asking me to do a background check in the first place, you already have your answer - don't date him. 

    A sane relationship is simple and easy with no red flags to check out or worry about, so if a woman doubts anything about her man, dump him.

    If you still want a background check done, first read, He's Just Not That Into You, by Greg Behrendt (at all bookstores or on-line, easy to read)

    Second, if you read the book and still want a background check done, be honest with yourself and ask "Do I need this drama?".

    Thirdly, if you still are not satisfied, call me and I will help you, I do not judge. But you must know, every male I have checked out for you fabulous women has turned out to be exactly what you thought...they are either married, a scam artist or a con or have a criminal record.

    Males that didn't fall under the above but are still suspicious or acting weird are covered in the book I mentioned above. A must read.

WOULD YOU GIVE THIS EX-CON VISITATION RIGHTS?

In the light of the recent story involving the child custody case of two-year old Madeleine Samaan Fay, below is another case currently before the court. During this particular custody battle and hearings held, it is obvious that the courts don't know what to do with unstable spouses, it is not their job to predict human behavior. The judge is only allowed to follow the laws on the books and then he hopes for the best, this is not good enough. It is a crap shoot. We need some new laws or policies that protect the children. 

Please make any comment or feedback as maybe this will lead to a proactive campaign to get legislative attention. The names have been changed for obvious reasons.

California Superior Court -Trial starts this week for custody and visitation of minor daughter. 

John Roberts, 43, was released from prison again within the last two years. He was sentenced on June 23, 2005, in Placer County, serving 6-7 years for threats to commit a crime resulting in death against Cari, and her parents. Roberts was sent to prison for threatening to have Cari's father killed at Pelican State Prison, where her father worked, as well as threatening Cari's mother, who at the time worked for Folsom State Prison. Roberts  also left death threats to other family members which is on tape and filed with the District Attorney’s office. Roberts was convicted of Penal Code 422, threats to commit a crime resulting in death; and PC 1170.12 (A,D); PC 667 (A1) and PC 12022.1.

WRITERS NOTES #5





Go the extra mile. Always give the client more than they expect. Don't give them a fair exchange, give them exchange over and beyond the fair exchange. Be distinctive, not a regular process server. Be indispensable, not just a robot. Do something that makes your client remember you.
