                        AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO SCHEDULE 13D

                 This statement ("Amendment No. 1") amends the statement on
Schedule 13D of Dobbins Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership"), Dobbins Capital
Corporation (the "General Partner") and J. Robert Dobbins with respect to the
common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of COMFORCE Corporation
(the "Company"), originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), on August 1, 1996.   This Amendment No. 1 is being filed by (i)
the Partnership, (ii) the General Partner, as the sole general partner of the
Partnership, and (iii) J. Robert Dobbins, as the owner of all of the outstanding
capital stock of the General Partner.  For purposes of this Amendment No. 1, the
Partnership, the General Partner and J. Robert Dobbins are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Reporting Persons." Except as disclosed herein,
there has been no change in the information previously reported in the statement
on Schedule 13D of the Reporting Persons with respect to the Common Stock.

ITEM 3.          SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

                 Item 3 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as
follows:

                 The Partnership purchased 450,000 shares of Common Stock on
October 16, 1995, with an aggregate of $1,350,000 in funds provided by the
working capital of the Partnership.  The Partnership acquired 5,882 shares of
Common Stock on June 13, 1995 as an inducement to make a loan to the Company of
$100,000, and acquired an additional 33,333 shares of Common Stock on December
19, 1995 in consideration of the forgiveness of such loan.  On April 1, 1997,
the Partnership sold 105,000 shares of Common Stock.

                 The exercise price with respect to the 225,000 shares of
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the "Warrants") granted to
the Partnership on October 17, 1995 is $3.375 per share (subject to adjustment
in certain circumstances).  If such Warrants are exercised, it is expected that
the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise will be purchased with
an aggregate of $759,375 in funds provided by the Partnership's working
capital.

ITEM 5.          INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

                 Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as
follows:




                                 Page 5 of 9
<PAGE>   6
                 (a)      The Partnership is the direct beneficial owner of an
aggregate of 384,215 shares of Common Stock and has the right to acquire an
additional 225,000 shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Warrants,
representing an aggregate of approximately 4.7% of the 12,819,649 shares of
Common Stock outstanding as of March 27, 1997 (as reported in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996).

                 (b)      The Partnership is the direct beneficial owner of the
shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned in this Item 5.  The
Partnership has the power to vote or direct the vote and to dispose of or
direct the disposition of such shares.

                 Under the definition of "beneficial ownership" contained in
Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), the General Partner and Mr. Dobbins may also be deemed to be the
beneficial owners of the shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned
in this Item 5, because (i) the General Partner is the sole general partner of
the Partnership and has control over the business of the Partnership and
responsibility for the direction of its operations and (ii) Mr. Dobbins is the
owner of all of the outstanding capital stock of the General Partner and is its
sole officer and director.  As a result, the General Partner and Mr. Dobbins
may be deemed to share with the Partnership the power to vote or to direct the
vote and the power to dispose of or direct the disposition of the shares of
Common Stock reported as beneficially owned in this Item 5.  However, neither
the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any information contained herein shall be
deemed to constitute an admission that either the General Partner or Mr.
Dobbins is the beneficial owner of any shares of Common Stock within the
meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act.

                 (c)      On April 1, 1997, the Partnership sold 105,000 shares
of Common Stock at a price of $7.25 per share in transactions effected on the
American Stock Exchange.  Except for the sale of the foregoing shares, no
transactions in the Common Stock have been effected by any Reporting Person
during the sixty days immediately preceding the date hereof.

                 (d)      No person other than the Partnership has the right to
receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds
from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the
Partnership.

                 (e)      On April 1, 1997, each Reporting Person ceased to be
the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the class of securities.
