Alabama Protective Orders Go Online

Thanks to Florida Divorce Blog for Alabama Petitions for Orders of Protection Go High Tech:

Now, victims of domestic violence can prepare their petitions for an injunction for protection against domestic violence on any internet-connected computer.

From there, the data in the petition is electronically transmitted via the internet to law enforcement.

When domestic violence victims arrive at the courthouse, they can simply print out their waiting petitions for orders of protection and sign them.

Then the information will be electronically transmitted to the domestic violence judge on duty."

I am not aware of Indiana doing anything like this - or even having plans to do so.
