You can copy and paste the above into your favorite word processor and edit it for your needs. Make sure the top heading portion matches exactly what is on the other documents in your case. Just in case you are looking for a continuance (a postponement of a court date) instead, Standard Legal publishes this professionally prepared Motion for Continuance.

Likewise, if you are dealing with a family law issue, there are standard Family Law Interrogatories on the Florida Supreme Court's website, www.flcourts.org.

Alternatively, you can craft your own set of questions to include in any interrogatories.
