Such inquiry may include, but is not limited to, available databases, counsel and/or parties as appropriate. Before or after the issuance of a criminal case protective order, the issuing court may contact, or be contacted by, another court to discuss the modification of the criminal case protective order, or a custody or visitation order, to allow or restrict contact between the person restrained by the criminal case protective order and his or her children. Any telephonic communication between judicial officers about the merits of a case must be reported by a certified court reporter.

Any fax or email communication on the merits of the case must be made a part of the court file in each court. If the parties are not able to participate in the communication between the courts, they must be given an opportunity to present facts and legal arguments before a decision on the merits is made. This Administrative Order is made pursuant to California Constitutional provisions and California Rules of Court (CRC) in accordance with Government Code 68070, CRC 6.603(C)(11), CRC 981(a)(2), and CRC 5.500 Dated this 18th day of April, 2005, at Santa Ana, California. _____________________________ Frederick P.
