memo from superior court re: self representation

[littleman]

as we have been gracioiusly told by a financial institute a seperation agreement is not worth the paper it is wrote on when it comes to joint loans......you are jointly responsible and if the other party defaults you are obligated to pay and take them to court to get your money back

This is a 9 page document outlining processes, expectations, and various rules for self representing at trial. I found it very helpful and wish I had it before trial. A quick search does not show it available on justice websites, so I have scanned it to a PDF and will email it to anyone who sends me an email address through forum private messaging.

WHEN my lawyer and i varied/ended spousal support,the ex and i watched as the 2 lawyers did there stuff..opening statement,evidence[affidavits only], and a few questions from the judge..he then asked about what our case was based on[precedence/case law???] and then made a decision.I understand that it could get way more involved..witnesses ,cross exam and stuff like that.

After i file the motion to vary and my supporting affidavit, get her affidavit and possibly respond to it,and after case conference[hopefully, that would be it],If we have to go to trial,i believe i would file a "brief" for the trial and go from there???The judge makes a verbal decision and backs it up, [after 1 of the parties prepares what he says into a document and he signs it]...
Is that generally it???Am i missing something in the procedure???

Thanks in advance

My GF's ex is supposed to represent himself in court later this month. I'm going as well because I can't wait to see that idiot stand there with his mouth open the entire time babbling about his God-given right to not have to pay child care or maintenance or section 7 expenses. That loser is refusing to pay all three of the previously-mentioned court-ordered costs even though he makes more $ than my GF, yet has the balls to spend $10 to represent himself while my GF spends hundreds of $ defending herself against this retard yet again.
But wait, isn't this where the masses here defend him and his right as a biological father to be a complete moron, such as trying to keep his son from going to Disney World next month with his mother and me?
Or my favorite: "it has nothing to do with you because you're just the dude going out with her".
Yea, you're right. I stand on the sidelines not giving her a penny for legal costs even though we've been going out for years...

Yes, you do. Let her fight her own battles and sort it out herself. Perhaps part of the reason things are so high conflict is your insistence at being involved.

What exactly do you think she would be doing if she were single? She'd put her big girl pants on and sort it out on her own, like she should be doing now.
