Rule 10-347 Termination of parental rights; form of motion.

When someone asks the court to end a parent's legal rights to their child, they need to file a formal written request called a motion. This motion has to follow a specific format that the Supreme Court has already approved.

This means you can't just write up your own version in whatever style you want. There's a set template or form to use, and the motion needs to match that approved format closely. Using the correct form helps make sure the court gets all the information it needs to handle such a serious matter.

If you're involved in a case like this, whether you're a parent, a relative, or someone else with an interest in the child's future, it helps to know that the process is standardized. Courts, attorneys, and caseworkers rely on this approved form so that these motions are consistent and contain the right information every time.
