Change of Venue

[bobbyfernandez]

Florida-Long story short: I have been divorced for 10 years. The 3rd judicial court of Hamilton county resides over my case. I haven’t lived in that county since the divorce. I live in Orlando (Orange County). My ex husband did/does kind of lives there. He is a traveling welder. He hasn’t been home in a year and won’t be home for 3 more. He has a girlfriend/address that he receives mail at in Hamilton County. He has appeared via telephone the last two times. I would like to get a change of Venue. I keep getting the run around when I ask the clerk what needs to be done. They won’t give me filing fees or form info. I can’t afford an attorney. Help, Trapped in Mayberry
