Q: How is a declaration letter and evidence submitted for a modification of a parenting plan in Florida?
I am wanting to include a declaration letter and evidence but I'm not sure how or when that is supposed to be filed. Is it filed with the modification of parenting plan or submitted after it's filed? Is the evidence supposed to be explained in the declaration letter?
A: I do not know what a declaration letter is. However, normally you file a motion outlining what you want from the court and why. Evidence is not submitted with the motion but presented to the court later at a properly noticed hearing. Speak with a local family lawyer for more specific advice.
