Laws current as of August 8, 2025 Do I need to tell the court in Mississippi if I move?
You don’t have to tell the court in Mississippi if you move, but it might be a good idea to give the court a current address. This is because the court will communicate with you by mail if anything happens in your case - for example, if the abuser asks the judge to change or end the order.
If you give your new address to the court, you can ask that it be kept confidential. The clerk should be able to tell you if that’s possible or not.
