Application and Order for Publication of Notice of Hearing to Non-Petitioning Parent for Petition for Change of Name

Orange County Superior Court · Locally Approved Forms

Verified current as of July 16, 2026

This form is used when someone wants to change their name and needs to notify a parent who isn't involved in the name change petition through publication (like a newspaper notice) because the parent cannot be located or served directly. A person would need this form if they're filing for a name change and a parent who didn't sign onto the petition needs to be officially notified but cannot be found through normal service methods.
