How do I make an application for a contact order?

If leave from the courts is not required an application can be made by filling out a C1 form and sending it to the court. If leave is required an application can be made by filling out a C2 form, and if permission is granted proceeding onto the C1 form. If there have already been previous legal proceedings, an application should be made on a C2 form. If a person is required to send both a C1 and a C2 form, they can send them at the same time. These forms can be obtained at county courts, family proceedings courts or at http://www.hmcourts-service.gov.uk/

Guidance on these forms are also available.
