DV-205 - California Judicial Council

Proof of Service of Response

Confirms that the protected person was served with the restrained person's written response and any attached documents.

What this form does

After the restrained person files their DV-120 response, they must serve it on the protected person. DV-205 is the proof that service happened. It must be filed before the hearing so the protected person has a chance to review the response.

Who needs to file it

Completed by the person who served the response — not the restrained person themselves.

When to file it

File after the DV-120 response has been served on the protected person.

What happens after you file

The protected person has received the response. Both sides are prepared for the hearing.

Filing fee: Free.
