Operative Text
This chapter applies to any judicial or administrative proceeding commenced in a court in this State against a federal worker during a covered period. This chapter does not apply to criminal proceedings or to child support payments.
Section 2504E of Delaware Code Title 6, Chapter 25E establishes the scope of a set of protections that apply specifically to federal workers during a defined 'covered period.' The chapter covers judicial and administrative proceedings brought in Delaware courts or agencies, but explicitly carves out criminal proceedings and child support payment matters from its reach. Understanding what falls inside and outside this chapter's boundaries is essential for anyone involved in a Delaware proceeding that touches a federal worker's legal or financial situation.
