2. KAYLA BURGESS V. KYLE BURGESS 23FL0919
On December 26, 2025, Petitioner filed a Request for Order (RFO) seeking custody and visitation orders. The parties were referred to Child Custody Recommending Counseling (CCRC) with an appointment on January 20, 2026.
There is no Proof of Service for the RFO or the CCRC referral and only Petitioner attended the scheduled CCRC appointment.
On February 2, 2026, Respondent filed Respondent’s Supplemental Declaration Re: Child Custody Recommending Counseling. It was served on January 28th.
Respondent filed a Responsive Declaration to Request for Order on March 9th. It was served on March 6th.
After reviewing the filings by Respondent, it does appear that he has actual knowledge of the RFO and the CCRC referral and he is not objecting to service, therefore the court finds any potential defect in service was waived and the matter may be reached on the merits.
The parties are re-referred to CCRC with an appointment on Thursday April 23rd at 9:00 am. A review hearing is set for Thursday June 18th at 8:30 am in Department 5. The issues raised in the RFO are continued to join with the CCRC review hearing. The parties are ordered to file and serve Supplemental Declarations no later than 10 days prior to the review hearing.

THE ISSUES RAISED IN THE RFO ARE CONTINUED TO JOIN WITH THE CCRC REVIEW HEARING. THE PARTIES ARE ORDERED TO FILE AND SERVE SUPPLEMENTAL DECLARATIONS NO LATER THAN 10 DAYS PRIOR TO THE REVIEW HEARING.
