Re: Amended Pleading Name Change
Well, you can hire an attorney to complete a proper petition or go to the law library and read the Family Code and the requirements it demands for your action.
Re: Amended Pleading Name Change
The judge was being very nice. I do not know what you gave to the court but there are requirements in the family code and you need to find out any local court rules regarding pleadings. You can get those from the clerk of court. The other option is a lawyer.
