Organizing Evidence for Georgia Family Courts
Filing Rules Overview
Georgia family courts follow the Georgia Uniform Superior Court Rules. Electronic filing (Georgia's PeachCourt) is available in many counties. Courts require specific forms for family law matters. Evidence must meet authentication standards, especially for digital communications and electronic records.
Formatting Requirements
Documents must use standard formatting with 12-point font and 1-inch margins. Exhibits should be labeled and organized clearly. PDF format is required for electronic filings. Each exhibit must be identifiable and properly referenced in supporting pleadings. Multi-page exhibits need consecutive page numbering.
Common Mistakes
Failing to properly authenticate text messages and digital evidence. Poor organization of exhibits. Missing labels or exhibit numbers. Not following county-specific procedures in addition to uniform rules. Incomplete or missing verification language on required documents.
