Navigating the complexities of Family Court can be challenging, especially when it comes to making changes to orders that affect life's most personal aspects—child support, alimony, custody, and visitation. When individuals find themselves in situations where an existing court order no longer reflects their current circumstances or if there is a need to enforce an order, the Family – Multi-Purpose Post-Judgment Motion Packet, revised September 3, 2013, serves as an essential tool. This comprehensive packet provides guidance on how to ask the court to amend or enforce an order, or request another action related to your case, specifically tailored for those with FM (Family Matrimonial) cases in New Jersey. It's designed for a variety of requests including adjustments to child support or alimony payments, changes to custody or visitation arrangements, enforcement of litigant’s rights, and even motions for the emancipation of a child among others. Importantly, this packet should not be used for cases beginning with an "FD" docket number, indicating non-dissolution applications which have a separate process. Beyond filing motions, this packet includes critical advice on preparing for court, meeting deadlines, and ensuring proper delivery of legal documents—a roadmap for self-represented litigants to navigate the procedural rigmaroles of Family Court.
