    I'm not sure what you're asking. For the verification part, go to a notary public (you may be able to get free notary service at your bank or at the courthouse), document your identity, execute the form before the notary, and have the document notarized.

    When lawyers represent people, they would normally submit an order ready for the judge to sign. Courts sometimes give pro se litigants more latitude. You should be able to find out from the court if you need to prepare the order, or if they will prepare it for you.
