Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

Re: Motion and Notice of Hearing

First of all, you are the "moving party" since it is you who is filing the motion. The motion title is merely putting into words exactly what you want, for example, "Motion to Request Final Pre-Trial Conference," or "Motion to Request Trial Date." Line # 4 indicates that you must contact the other party (or other party's attorney) and tell him/her just what you are seeking. If the other party is not in agreement, then you go forward with this motion and fill in the other party's name and the date when you asked for concurrence. If your spouse has no attorney, you fill in your spouse's name. Then you must serve a copy of the motion on the other person. You should also file a "Proof of Service" with the motion. The Proof of Service is a statement by you indicating that you have served a copy of the motion on the other party. Also include how that service was made, either by U.S.mail, or by hand-delivery, or by fax, or however else you delivered it. If the divorce is uncontested, in other words the two of you agree on everything, you can motion up a hearing for a Final Consent Judgment of Divoce. Good luck to you. Hope this helped.
