I've been picking my way through this site over the past week, trying to learn and inform myself of every possible item and scenario involved in Separation and Divorce, as well as major paperwork and procedures that needs to be completed in doing so.

I have come across numerous acronym's and unknown references to what should be simple pieces of common information.

Any chance of or opinions to the idea from moderators or senior member to start a GLOSSARY tread.

CA -- Custody Agreement
CC -- Court Case
CP -- Custodial Parent
NCP -- Non-Custodial Parent
STBX -- Soon-to-be Ex

Those are just a few examples. Another statement was "My D6"

-- C.C.

Excellent idea. I'll add:
D6 - 6 year old daughter
S6 - 6 year old son
OP - Original Poster / Other Party (have seen both)
CC - Case Conference
SC Settlement Conference
TMC - Trial Management Conference / pre-trial conference
etc...

stbx- soon to be ex
