| The term "harm" cannot be totally defined and, as in the |
issuance of temporary retraining orders, the appropriate issuance |
of a warrant is left to the circumstances of the case. Those |
circumstances include cases where the respondent is the subject |
of a criminal proceeding as well as situations where the |
respondent is secreting the child in violation of a court order, |
abusing the child, a flight risk and other circumstances that the |
court concludes make the issuance of notice a danger to the |
child. The court must hear the testimony of the petitioner or |
another witness prior to issuing the warrant. The testimony may |
be heard in person, via telephone, or by any other means |
acceptable under local law. The court must State the reasons for |
the issuance of the warrant. The warrant can be enforced by law |
enforcement officers wherever the child is found in the State. |
The warrant may authorize entry upon private property to pick up |
the child if no less intrusive means are possible. In |
extraordinary cases, the warrant may authorize law enforcement to |
make a forcible entry at any hour. |
