What this form asks for

The AI fills all of it, from your answers or your documents.

Form ADOPT-331, Order on Request for Appointment of Confidential Intermediary, is a legal document issued by the Superior Court of California. It formalizes the court's decision on a request (filed using Form ADOPT-330) to appoint an intermediary to help facilitate contact between siblings separated by adoption or termination of parental rights. This order is crucial as it either authorizes the search and contact process or denies it based on the best interests of the individuals involved. Today, this form can be filled out quickly and accurately using AI-powered services like Instafill.ai, which can also convert non-fillable PDF versions into interactive fillable forms.

The AI checks your answers before you download

13 checks built for this form, so a wrong date or a missing answer is caught before anyone else sees it.

Exclusive Order Outcome Selection

This check ensures that the user has not selected both 'Request Granted' and 'Request Denied' simultaneously. An order cannot be both granted and denied, so selecting both options creates a logical contradiction. If validation fails, the user should be prompted to choose only one of these mutually exclusive options.

Mandatory Order Outcome

Validates that at least one of the 'Request Granted' or 'Request Denied' checkboxes has been selected. The purpose of the form is to document a court's decision, so an outcome is required for the form to be complete. A failure to select an outcome would render the document legally incomplete and ambiguous.

Court Information Completeness

Ensures the 'Court Name and Street Address' field is not empty. This information is critical for identifying the specific court and jurisdiction handling the case. Without it, the order is not properly associated with a legal venue, making it invalid.

Case Number Presence

This validation confirms that the 'Case Number' field has been filled out. The case number is the unique identifier for the legal proceeding within the court system. A missing case number makes it impossible to file or reference the document correctly.

Filer's Name Completeness

Verifies that the 'Filer's Name' field is not left blank. This field identifies the individual who initiated the request, which is essential for the legal record. An empty filer name would create ambiguity about the parties involved in the court's order.

Conditional Requirement for Adoptee Status

This check enforces that the 'One or both siblings are adoptees' checkbox can only be selected if the 'Request Granted' checkbox is also selected. The appointment of an intermediary is contingent on the request being granted first. This prevents illogical data entry where conditions of a granted request are specified even if the request was denied.

Common Mistakes in Completing ADOPT-331

The ones the AI is built to catch.

Incomplete or Incorrect Court Information
People often use abbreviations for the court name or forget to specify the county, leading to ambiguity and potential misfiling. This error can cause significant delays as the document may be routed to the wrong courthouse or rejected by the clerk's office. To prevent this, always write the full, official name 'Superior Court of California, County of...' and the complete street address as listed on official court websites.
Invalid or Missing Case Number
Entering the case number with typos, using an incorrect format, or leaving it blank is a frequent and critical error. The case number is the primary identifier that links your document to the correct legal file. An incorrect number can cause the form to be rejected or lost within the court system, necessitating a time-consuming refiling process.
Filer Completing Court-Only Sections
Filers sometimes mistakenly check the 'Request Granted' or 'Request Denied' boxes, not realizing this section is exclusively for the judge to complete. This invalidates the form because it appears to pre-empt the court's decision, leading to automatic rejection. Filers must leave all sections designated for the court's order completely blank.
Ignoring Conditional Logic for Appointments
The form contains several fields that should only be filled out if a preceding box is checked, such as providing an agency name only after checking the appointment box. People often miss these dependencies, either filling in details for unselected options or skipping required information for selected ones. This creates an inconsistent and invalid form, which can be avoided by carefully reading instructions like 'Fill only if...' for each field. AI-powered tools like Instafill.ai can help by automatically showing or hiding dependent fields based on your selections.
Omitting the Licensed Adoption Agency Name
A common oversight is checking the box to appoint 'A licensed adoption agency' but then failing to write the specific name of that agency in the designated field. The court cannot appoint a generic, unnamed entity; the order must identify the specific agency being appointed. This omission makes the order unenforceable and requires correction, delaying the entire process.
Incomplete Alternate Intermediary Details
When an alternate intermediary is needed due to economic hardship, filers may check the corresponding box but then fail to provide the alternate's full name, address, and phone number. This omission brings the appointment process to a halt, as the court cannot appoint an unidentified or unreachable person. Ensure all three fields—name, address, and phone number—are completed if you select the alternate appointment option.
Improperly Formatted Contact Information
When providing the Alternate Intermediary's details, users may enter an incomplete address (e.g., missing a ZIP code) or a phone number without an area code. This can make it impossible for the court or other parties to contact the appointed intermediary, causing significant delays. To avoid this, use a standard format like (XXX) XXX-XXXX for phone numbers and include the full street address, city, state, and ZIP code. Using a tool like Instafill.ai can help prevent these errors by validating and formatting data as you type.
Using an Informal or Incomplete Filer Name
Individuals sometimes use nicknames, initials, or an incomplete version of their name instead of the full legal name that appears on other court documents. This can create identity verification issues and inconsistencies in the case file, potentially leading to processing delays or rejection. Always use your full, official legal name to ensure clarity and legal validity.
Filling Out Contradictory Appointment Sections
A user might fill out the details for both the primary 'Licensed Adoption Agency' and the 'Alternate Confidential Intermediary' at the same time. These sections are mutually exclusive; the alternate is only appointed if the primary agency cannot serve. Filling out both creates a direct contradiction that the court cannot resolve, forcing a rejection of the form and requiring you to start over.
Misusing the 'Provide Copy' Instruction Checkbox
Filers may incorrectly check the box to 'Provide copy to confidential intermediary' before the request has been granted, or they may forget to check it after it has been granted. This instruction is only valid after a judge grants the request, authorizing the clerk to send the necessary documents. Checking it incorrectly causes confusion, while forgetting it can delay the intermediary's ability to begin their work. If the form is a non-fillable PDF, a service like Instafill.ai can convert it to an interactive version, making checkboxes and fields easier to manage.

Who fills out this form?
A judicial officer, such as a judge, fills out and signs this form. It is the court's official response to a request filed by an individual, not a form for the public to complete.

A confidential intermediary is a person or licensed agency appointed by the court to discreetly search for a sibling involved in an adoption case and inquire about their interest in having contact.
What information do I need to have ready for the court to complete this order?
The court will use information from your initial request (Form ADOPT-330), including the case number and your name as the filer. The judge will then make the decision and appoint an intermediary if the request is granted.
What happens if my request is granted?
If the request is granted, the court will check the 'Request Granted' box and appoint a confidential intermediary, typically a licensed adoption agency, to begin the process of contacting the sibling.
Why would a request be denied?
The court may deny the request if it determines that granting contact would be detrimental to the well-being of the adoptee or the sibling with whom contact is sought.
Who can be appointed as an alternate confidential intermediary?
An alternate intermediary is appointed if the licensed adoption agency cannot serve due to economic hardship. The court will then name a different qualified entity or person and list their contact information on the form.
What is Form ADOPT-330, which is mentioned on the form?
Form ADOPT-330 is the 'Request for Appointment of Confidential Intermediary.' It is the initial application you file with the court to ask for an intermediary to be appointed; this order is the court's decision on that request.
