Questão jurídica principal
How should notice of a decision not to hear a child be served under the revised divorce law?
Decisão extraída
If a child over 11 is to be served a procedural order refusing a hearing, the order should generally be delivered personally by court mail to the child at its actual place of residence; in exceptional cases service may be omitted.
Fundamentação extraída
A hearing may be waived for age or other important reasons, but a child capable of appeal must receive the order so it can exercise its right to challenge the waiver; otherwise the right can be raised later.
