Hi, guys,
trial management conference - forced by ex's lawyer
this summer, after the 2nd settlement conference, ex's lawyer mailed me an offer to settle. Then after 2 weeks, i gave ex's lawyer my offer to settle as an response to their offer to settle.
ex has a lawyer, and I represent myself.
last weekend, ex called me and wanted to settle down directly between ex and me without her lawyer. i was confused by her way of jumping off her lawyer, so i sent an email to her lawyer to clarify whether the lawyer is still ex's representative. Then yesterday, her lawyer email me with following:
[I am going to issue a Conference Notice with Superior Court of Justice for a Trial Managment Conference. I will be available on the following dates: December 17, 20 of 2010 and January 7, 14, 19, 21, 31, February 4, 7, March 2, 4, 7, 9, 11, 16, 18 and 21, 23, 25 of 2011. Please advise the dates you are not available.
I look forward to hearing from you within seven days, failing which I will issue the above said Conference Notice without further notice to you.
Please also be informed that I am pending for my client's instruction as to whether she will present a counter offer. "]
I feel that i am forced to accept a Trial Management Conference.
Could any one give me an idea how to deal with it. what the legal procedure or rules say. I have checked the family law rule. I can not find out the related. I really need a direction about how to deal with it.
could any one tell me some relevant resources, i can download, print, read and educate myself, before i raise any stupid questions.
Thank you very much
