Legal Question in Family Law in Maryland

Do I have to give my address to the 'servee'?

I am going to be serving, in person, papers for child support and visitation. The Affidavit of Service has a section for ''Street Address of Server''. Due to underlying issues, I do not want the person I'm serving to know my home address--is there any way around this? I work for the State of Maryland and I have ''Sensitive'' and ''Confidentiality'' security clearance. Is there anyway the clerk at the courthouse can verify my address and note that on the affidavit, or do I HAVE to put it on the paper?

Try using your work address if that's not a problem. Or leave it blank and see if the clerk's office rejects it when the affidavit is filed--they probably won't. The "servee" isn't going to make an issue of it.
