What can you do to get a change of venue from supreme court to family court when the ruling states that supreme court no longer has jurisdiction 1 year after the divorce.?
Clarification needed. Are you sure you mean SUPREME Court or do you actually mean SUPERIOR Court? If your state SUPREME COURT has ruled "no jurisdiction," then you're out of luck - no court in your state will handle it. Additionally - you may be out of luck anyway. So-called "family court" is nothing more than a division of Superior (in some states they're called "Circuit" court) and a ruling of 'no jurisdiction by a superior court judge would also apply to the family division of the same court.

Can a police officer bring a narcotic issue in to the federal system?
If what you mean by a federal system you mean a supreme court, then NO. The only person who can bring a case to the supreme court is a lower court. Typically a case will get heard in a circuit court, then if contested, the findings will be reviewed by an appeals court and if it gets farther than that it will be reviewed by a state supreme court and eventually (only if it is a federal issue) it will be heard by the US supreme court. So technically a police officer can't bring it there, but he/she can be the initiator of the case on the lower level.Cheers!
