Appendix A Twenty-Four Hour Accessibility to Emergency Protective Orders and Local Joint Jurisdiction Domestic Violence Protocol--54th Judicial Circuit and District--Boone & Gallatin Counties
Pursuant to KRS 403.735, and in compliance with Family Court Rules of Procedure and Practice (FCRPP) Section IV, this local domestic violence protocol is established to ensure twenty-four hour accessibility to emergency protective orders and to establish written procedures for domestic violence matters in which there may be joint jurisdiction between the circuit/family and district courts.
[Consistent with FCRPP 12, when the local domestic violence protocol requires that a case be transferred to another circuit due to a pending dissolution or custody matter, an emergency protective order shall continue and the summons shall be reissued by the initiating court, pursuant to KRS 403.740(4), for a period not to exceed fourteen days if service has not been made on the adverse party by the date of transfer, or as the court determines is necessary for the protection of the petitioner. Thereafter, reissuance of the summons shall occur as needed in the court of transfer.]
F. The schedule for domestic violence hearings is as follows: In Boone County the hearings shall be scheduled on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8:30 a.m. In Gallatin County the hearings shall be scheduled on the first and third Thursdays of the month at 8:30 a.m. or in certain circumstances when the Family court Judge is not available to hear cases in Gallatin County, the hearings will be scheduled on a date and at a time the District Court Judge is available.
All general orders, forms, policies and procedures relating to domestic violence within the judicial circuit are attached to this protocol and incorporated by reference.
