To
prevent the issuance of competing protection orders in different
courts and to give courts needed information for issuance of
orders, the judicial information system shall be available in
each district, municipal, and superior court by July 1, 1997, and
shall include a database containing the following information:
(1) The names of the parties and the cause number for every
order of protection issued under this title, every sexual assault
protection order issued under chapter 7.90 RCW, every criminal
no-contact order issued under chapters 9A.46 and 10.99 RCW, every
antiharassment order issued under chapter 10.14 RCW, every
dissolution action under chapter 26.09 RCW, every third-party
custody action under chapter 26.10 RCW, every parentage action
under chapter 26.26 RCW, every restraining order issued on behalf
of an abused child or adult dependent person under chapter 26.44 RCW, every foreign protection order filed under chapter 26.52 RCW, and every order for protection of a vulnerable adult under
chapter 74.34 RCW. When a guardian or the department of social
and health services has petitioned for relief on behalf of an
abused child, adult dependent person, or vulnerable adult, the
name of the person on whose behalf relief was sought shall be
included in the database as a party rather than the guardian or
department;
(2) A criminal history of the parties; and
(3) Other relevant information necessary to assist courts in
issuing orders under this chapter as determined by the judicial
information system committee.
