To get full custody, you'll need to file a motion before the appropriate Oklahoma family law court requesting full custody. Following the motion, there'll be at least one hearing on the matter. The number of hearings will depend on why you requested full custody and the other parent's response to the motion.

How do I file for emergency custody in Oklahoma? In order to get an emergency custody order, you must show the judge that the child is in surroundings that endanger the child. There must be a danger of irreparable harm to the child if the child continues to stay in that situation.

Modifying child support on your own, known as a pro se modification, is an option that allows you to initiate the process independently. To begin, visit the court that issued the initial child support order and request the necessary paperwork for modification.

To modify a custody order you will need to file a Motion to Modify Custody Order with the same court where the initial custody order was issued. You will need to state why you want the modification and must show what you deem your permanent and material change in circumstance is for the court to consider your request.

Doing it yourself: You can write up court papers yourself and file them with the court clerk, asking that the judge set a hearing to decide if a modification of child support will be ordered. You should always talk to a lawyer and have your paperwork reviewed before you do this.

The first step is to make sure an existing court order has been violated. Once the violation is established your attorney will prepare an Application for Contempt and set an arraignment date. At the arraignment the party charged with contempt will plead either guilty or not guilty.
