Can someone please explain what Case conference is like and what happens during CC and after. Does the judge hearing the CC make a ruling - what happens if one party does not agree with ruling - any info would help greatly - CC scheduled for March

CC, is relatively informal, it is a process that allows a judge to monitor and manage the progress of a court case as it moves through the system. As part of this process, individuals who are separating and divorcing have an opportunity to meet with a judge to try and resolve their issues together.

The judge will make recommendations, but may generate orders if both parties are in agreement.
It is to help reduce unnecessary delay in reaching a final determination of a case, reduce the costs for those involved, and to encourage the parties to have a direct part in finding mutually satisfactory solutions.

So basically nothing gets resolved at a CC, do I understand that correctly?

Yes and no. My first time around I was able to get an interim custody order at the CC but nothing more. The 2nd time around, nothing at the CC at all except an adjournment for 2 weeks.

If the two parties cannot agree, generally a judge will not order anything, but will offer recommendations as to how he/she feels things will proceed with respect to your case.
In some cases a judges recommendations are put into a temporary order to help alleviate the issues if possible but not always. If you feel that you and your ex are too far apart there is a possibility that nothing will be resolved. But both parties will have a clearer understanding on how issues will be addressed later in a future appearance.
