A filled-in Form FL/E-ME-811 example: a mother lists her two children

Form FL/E-ME-811 example filled out, example: a mother lists her two children
Maria Sample, the petitioner, fills out form FL/E-ME-811 for her custody case. She lists her two children with the respondent, Tom Sample, and neither party needs an interpreter. The picture shows the filled sheet and its names and figures are sample values. Maria is the mother and Tom is the father of both children, so Relationship to Child/ren says Mother for her and Father for him. Neither party has an attorney, so Petitioner's Attorney Information and Respondent's Attorney Information stay empty. There is no claimant, so Claimant's (3rd Party's) Information and Claimant's Attorney Information stay empty. Both children live with Maria, so Resides with shows her name. The ages are counted on the signing date, October 6, 2026, and the four unused rows of the children list are left blank because there are only two children. Nothing goes in the language line because no one needs an interpreter, so the Petitioner, Respondent and Claimant / 3rd Party boxes stay empty.
