The Clerk’s Office is prohibited from providing legal advice per 28 U.S.C. § 955.
A Motion for Relief from Automatic Stay is not a form and must be prepared by the filer. There is a $181.00 fee unless:
a. It is for Co-Debtor Relief from Stay only;
b. It is a Child Support Motion accompanied by Form 2810 Appearance of Child Support Creditor of Representative; or
c. It comes with a proposed Consent Order signed by all interested parties, including the Trustee.

The Motion for Relief from Automatic Stay can be filed at any Clerk’s Office Intake Counter (Atlanta, Gainesville, Newnan, Rome). Please note that Gainesville, Newnan and Rome, only accept cashier’s checks or money orders for payment.
