How To Use Official Forms
- Identify the process.Use the Clerk’s current information or speak with an advocate or lawyer. Court staff can explain procedure but cannot choose legal strategy.
- Open the current official form.Check the title, form number, and revision date. Do not substitute Cove’s practice preview for a mandatory form.
- Follow the form’s own instructions.Complete only applicable sections. Use the designated confidential-information form or process when directed.
- Describe facts carefully.Dates, approximate times, observable actions, exact words when remembered, and the requested relief belong in the locations the official form specifies.
- Review attachments and filing steps.Confirm what should be filed, served, kept confidential, or brought to a hearing with the Clerk or qualified legal support.
