                                   Adopting Civil Rule 65.1
                                   concerning domestic violence
                                   protective orders.

IT IS ORDERED:

     The Civil Rules are amended by adding a new rule to read:


          Rule 65.1.  Domestic Violence Protective
          Orders   Access to Information.
          
          A petitioner who is appearing pro se in a
          proceeding to obtain a domestic violence
          protective order under AS 18.66.100 or
          18.66.110 may submit the petitioner's mailing
          address and telephone number on a separate
          form and omit this information from other
          pleadings and papers filed with the court.
          Access to the form containing the petitioner's
          mailing address and telephone number is
          limited to the court, authorized court system
          personnel, and the petitioner. If a child
          support order is entered in the proceeding,
          court system personnel may also provide a copy
          of the address information form to the Child
          Support Enforcement Division.  Further
          disclosure of this form by the Child Support
          Enforcement Division is prohibited. If the
          petitioner submits an information sheet
          containing the petitioner's address and
          telephone number for use by law enforcement
          agencies, the court may retain a copy of this
          document.  Access to the copy is limited to
          the court, authorized court system personnel,
          and the petitioner.
