YOU ARE HEREBY SUMMONED to appear before this court 900 Sheridan Avenue, Bronx, New
York 10451, Part 5, on OCTOBER 18th, 2019 at 11:30 oʼclock in the fore noon of said day to
answer the petition and to show cause why said child(ren) should not be adjudicated to be a

FAMILY COURT ACT should not be made if the final disposition is an order of placement.
On your failure to appear as herein directed, a warrant may be issued for your arrest.

violation of an order of protection is alleged, may be served outside the State of New York upon a
Respondent who is not a resident or domiciliary of the State of New York. If no other grounds for
obtaining personal jurisdiction over the Respondent exist aside from the application of this
provision, the exercise of personal jurisdiction over the respondent is limited to the issue of the
request for, or alleged violation of the order of protection. Where the Respondent has been served
with this summons and petition and does not appear, the Family Court may proceed to a hearing
