Fill-in-the-blank forms prepared by the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) are available through the Clerk of Superior Court and are officially designated for pro se (“do-it-yourself”) complainants.
Attorneys are also allowed to use these forms, or lawyers may file custom-tailored complaints. The district court division has original jurisdiction over actions instituted under Chapter 50-B. These AOC forms should not be used if custody is an issue because they do not provide the requisite allegations to establish a solid claim for custody. The same holds true when one is seeking other remedies such as child support or alimony.
