Submit a motion/petition to request the action - be prepared with good reason why it should be granted. Although it is possible to o all this yourself, I strongly suggest you retain an attorney to assist you.

You must start by submitting a motion/petition to the court having jurisdiction, and then submit it to the Clerk Of The Court's Office to be filed as a court paper. It is not an easy or simple process and if you are considering doing it I would urge you to retain an attorney to assist, guide and advise you.
