In most cases, the first affidavit describes the background facts about who the couple are, when they met, when they separated, who their children are and so forth. Affidavits after that usually update the court about events occurring since the previous affidavit was sworn. | In many family law court proceedings, it is not uncommon to have three, four, or even fifteen affidavits prepared in the course of things.
