Emergency Verified Motion for Child Pick-Up Order

Emergency Verified Motion for Child Pick-Up Order

This is a request that the court enter an order directing the sheriff or other law enforcement officer to take a minor child from the person who currently has physical possession of the child and deliver the child to your physical custody or possession.

This form should only be used in an emergency by a person who has a pre-existing legal right to physical possession of a minor child. This means that you already have a court order awarding you legal custody of or time-sharing with the child OR you are the birth mother of one or more children born out of wedlock and no court order has addressed any other person’s parental rights.

If you find yourself in this situation you can attempt to use the self-help form located at www.flcourts.org. I would suggest consulting an attorney before you file this Motion.
