Name Spelled Wrong on Order of Protection

[saratk]

My son's father has just had me served with an order of protection and a summons to go to court for a Family Offense. Besides both being based on warped facts, my name is spelled incorrectly. Does that nullify the summons in any way? Thank you.

No, a misspelling does not void the order in any way, nor does it relieve you of your obligation to go to court.

Don't miss the court date, or you may find yourself with a warrant for failure to appear.

[Mr. Knowitall]

Or that you've been defaulted and your ex- has received everything he's asked for.
