Change Of Venue/transfer Of Case Page 2

Once transferred, the files and records of your case in the new court will be called “auxiliary.” A

certified copy of any order or decree entered in your auxiliary case must also be forwarded to the court you

originally filed in, and you will have to submit an extra copy to the clerk of the auxiliary court for this purpose.

Regardless of the file number assigned to your auxiliary case, the file number in your original case will remain

the reference number for all purposes, including support payment records in the Department of Justice. Fill out

and file the forms for Transfer of Case in the box above.

Serve the Other Party: Whether you file to transfer your case or to change venue, you are required to have the

other party served (have papers delivered to) with certified copies of the documents you file with the court clerk

(you may certify the copies by signing your name where it says “I certify this is a true copy”).

RESPONDING TO A MOTION TO TRANSFER CASE OR CHANGE VENUE

Complete the “Affidavit Responding to Motion to 9 Transfer Case or 9 Change Venue”, and mail copies to the

party requesting the transfer or change of venue. File both the Affidavit and the “Certificate of Mailing

(Response)” with the court where the motion has been filed.
