Hi everyone,
I don't know the current whereabouts of my child/her mother, so I submitted a C4 along with my C100 form. What I received back from the court was a Directions appointment, along with 2 copies of my C4/C100s, one C7 form, 2 C6s and a C9 form.
But the whole point of sending the C4 is that I don't know her whereabouts, so how am I to serve the C6? I thought completing the C4 meant the courts would locate/serve her?
I'm really confused about what to do now?! Are the courts trying to locate her? What should I do with my c6/c7/c9?
Thanks
Hi there
The court office do get things wrong, of course you cant serve papers on her as her whereabouts are unknown!
Give the court a call or go in and explain what has happened and they will advise you. It might be better if you take the forms in and speak to someone directly.
Hi theres a good chance the court have sent more forms than they should its usually the admin dept that send them out and ive been sent the wrong forms on more than 1 occasion
Thanks guys. I'll give the courts a ring on monday and post their reply. It's a bit far to pop in. About 150 miles ๐ฎ
