In Pinellas
County, there is a separate Family Law Division to handle all Domestic
Violence Restraining Orders, Divorces, Child Support issues, Parental
Responsibility/Visitation issues, Name Changes, Adoptions and all
Juvenile matters. The Family Law Division was created in 1992 by Local
Rule 11. All Family Law cases initiated in mid 1992
or after will have case numbers followed by a “FD,” or rarely, “FI.”
Family Law cases dating from early 1992 or older may have a FD,
FI, II, or CI at the end of the case number.
If you
are an unrepresented litigant (pro se) please also check out the
forms and information available on our “Representing
Yourself in Family Court” page.
