I am representing myself on motion for contempt against my ex-wife. We have a court date for Feb. 6 and she was served Dec. 20.
Since being served, she has complied with me picking up SOME of my property items, but not ALL.
Should I write an Amended Motion and file it with the Clerk of Court? Do I also need to have her served again?
It would not be necessary to file an amended motion but if you did, you would need to file it with the clerk of court and send it to your ex-wife, but you would not need to serve it by certified mail or sheriff’s deputy. You can simply mail it in the regular mail at the address that you successfully served her with the original motion.
