Arizona Instructions: How to Fill Out Forms to Respond to a Petition to Establish Paternity, Legal Decision Making and Parenting Time are forms used in the state of Arizona when filing a response to a petition that requests the establishment of paternity, legal decision-making, and parenting time. There are two types of forms available: 1. Respondent’s Answer to Petition to Establish Paternity, Legal Decision Making and Parenting Time: This form is used by the respondent to provide a response to the petition. The respondent must answer each of the numbered paragraphs and provide their contact information. 2. Respondent’s Counterpetition to Establish Paternity, Legal Decision Making and Parenting Time: This form is used by the respondent to request a change in the existing paternity, legal decision-making, or parenting time arrangements.

To complete either form, the respondent must provide their name, address, date of birth, and social security number. They must also answer each of the numbered paragraphs and provide contact information for any witnesses they may have. The respondent must also provide a signature and date the form.
