Unlike magistrate's court, where forms are available, you will need to file a modification in Superior Court. They do not provide forms. You should consult with a local attorney.

All changes of custody require a Judge. You can't just write a form. While a 14 year old can make an election, a Judge can, for cause, overrule it.
