California Form FL-685 is the Response to Governmental Notice of Motion or Order to Show Cause, a family law form filed in California case proceedings. It is used when the local child support agency (LCSA) or another governmental party files a motion, and the other party needs to formally share their position with the court on matters including parentage, child support, health insurance coverage, and other orders.
The form allows you to admit or deny parentage of the children listed in the case, consent to or object to proposed child support amounts, address health insurance orders, and contest fees or property restraints. Any facts in support of your response must be stated and declared under penalty of perjury. A completed proof of service by mail confirms the other party received a copy of your California response.
Filing FL-685 by the court's deadline is critical. Missing it may result in the court ruling without your input. Contact your local courthouse or a family law attorney to confirm the deadline and required filing procedures for your case.
