The system is broke. They cater to the rich and no one helps people without money. There is a lot of bias and discrimination of people who are not conservative. They all know each other and talk behind your back and make decisions about you even without knowing you. Most ruthless and vindictive people.

Security guys at the entrance were very kind. I had a wine opener they had to take for me but they were nice about it. Told us where we had to go. The person who issued the marriage license was also nice. Only took us probably 30 minutes or less total.

Questions & Answers

Where would one go to for a PFA? Protection from abuse?? Would that be at the court house? Also to file emergency custody? Is this done at the court house or domestic relations offices? Thank you.

Patty Fisher | Oct 16, 2021
Steven Jusino | Oct 16, 2021

Bail Administration. I believe it's on the 2nd or 3rd floor. Emergency PFA's can be done through 911. They'll direct you to an officer who will decide if you need one, if so then they'll direct you to a judge. An emergency PFA only lasts until the following morning, so I'd get an official one.

kimberly foraker | Oct 16, 2021

You'll have to go on the web site type in custody papers itll give you a packet to fill out all you need is right in there... PDAs are given by the officer call 911 if needed.. but my advice is this if they dont gave custody you can keep your son or daughter they are not obligated to go with the other parent because theres no order now if there was you can modify that order to be changed just gotta file those papers
