How do I go about setting a court hearing in my Domestic Relations case?

The procedure for setting a court hearing varies, depending upon whether you are represented by an attorney, or you are a "pro se" or self-represented litigant. If you are represented by legal counsel, your attorney will set any necessary court hearings for you by contacting the judge's office. If you represent yourself in a domestic matter, all hearings will be scheduled through the Court's Self Help Coordinator. The procedure for scheduling a pro se hearing is outlined in the legal packets sold in the Domestic Relations Division.
