June 24, 201050 So. 3d 547
Summary
The Court amended the approved family-law forms for adult, minor-child, and family name changes to reflect statutory changes requiring fingerprinting and criminal-history checks and clarifying hearing and cost procedures. The amendments became effective immediately, while interested persons were given sixty days to submit comments. The Court expressly declined to opine on the forms' correctness, applicability, or the substance of the underlying legislation.
