FORM 18.7 - FINAL DECREE OF ADOPTION (WITHOUT INTERLOCUTORY ORDER). This from the Probate Court of Stark County, Ohio, is used to legally finalize an adoption without requiring a prior interlocutory order. This form, governed by Ohio Revised Code (R.C.) 3107.13, 3107.14, and 3107.19, states that the Court finds that notice has been given to all parties; that all consents have been filed or have been found not required; that the allegations in the petition are true; that the minor has been lawfully placed in the home of the petitioner; that the minor has lived in the home of the petitioner for six months as required by law; that a report of the assessor has been filed and is approved; that the adoption is in the best interest of the minor being adopted; that the accountings, as required, have been filed, reviewed and approved, and that the minor is an adopted person. By signing this decree, the judge officially grants the adoption, legally establishing the adoptive parent-child relationship and authorizing a name change for the child, if requested. www.FormsWorkflow.com
