It is suggested, but not required, that the filed motion to withdraw include a certificate of service stating when the client and the other parties or their counsel were served.

The motion to withdraw must be served on the client at least 10 days before it is filed.

Each party must provide the other party with the applicable provisional-hearing disclosure and child support worksheet by the hearing date and time.

Applies to

Final hearing disclosure

The Petitioner must serve the completed Final Hearing Disclosure on the other party no later than 40 days before the Final Hearing.

The filing deadline for proof of program completion is within ten days of completion.

The provisional-orders hearing filings must be completed and filed on or before the date and time set for the hearing.

The opposing party must complete and file its portion of the disclosure form with the Court within 30 days after service.

Continuance motions must be in writing unless made on the record during the hearing or specifically authorized by the Court.

Before filing a written continuance motion, the moving party must confer with all other parties’ counsel and, where practical, self-represented parties, ascertain objections and at least three mutually available rescheduling dates, and report or attach the objections and dates to the motion.

A party’s self-represented status does not excuse compliance with the continuance rule, and counsel must make a good-faith attempt to communicate with that person about a continuance request.
