Concord, NC asked in Child Custody and Child Support for North Carolina

Q: Can I file motion for discovery on a child custody case?

Father filed for child custody and support. We’ve had 50/50 since. Can I file motion for discovery to see what his plan of attack is going to be? I can’t seem to find the form.

A: Yes, you can file discovery requests to seek relevant information to the case. However, there is no "form" for discovery requests, so it is something you will have to generate yourself (or more likely - pay an attorney to generate).
