Use the current official form: This guide explains the role of Form F2 under Rule 2-2(3)–(5). Always check the current Rules and official form before filing, serving or relying on a deadline.
What Form F2 is for
Used when a person withdraws from a joint Supreme Court family case that began with Form F1.
Key points
- File Form F2 and personally serve the filed notice on the other joint claimant.
- If you want to oppose a claim in the joint claim or seek other relief, Rule 2-2 requires the appropriate response and/or counterclaim when F2 is filed.
- After withdrawal, the case continues under the ordinary family-case rules rather than as a joint case.
Practical steps
- Confirm the court file and registry match the original joint claim.
- File the completed F2.
- Arrange personal service of the filed notice as Rule 2-2 requires.
- If you need to oppose or add claims, prepare the required F4 and/or F5 at the same time.
Common mistakes
- Assuming withdrawal automatically ends the entire case.
- Serving an unfiled copy instead of the filed F2.
- Failing to file a response/counterclaim when Rule 2-2(4) requires it.
