Full question:
I need a form to submit regarding amending the Original Complaint for Divorce. Do I need to file the original complaint for Divorce along with the amended complaint
- Category: Divorce
- Subcategory: Modification
- Date:
- State: National
Answer:
I cannot provide legal advice, including how to write a motion. The rules for amending a complaint vary by state and local jurisdiction. Generally, state rules do not require the original complaint to be attached to the motion to amend. However, it can be beneficial to include the original complaint as an exhibit. This helps the judge understand the changes you are requesting and may streamline their review process. I recommend contacting the clerk of court for your local rules, as they can differ by court.
