In short(ish)
Existing divorce order in place for three years. Two daughters have gotten older (8 and 11) .Financial obligations have changed, personal finances for ex have changed.
Mediation process started. One session attended with a fair amount accomplished. Interim agreement signed providing new parenting schedule (still 50/50). Daughters attend counselling over the coming months to determine if the schedule is the most appropriate for them, monitor their adjustment and make suggestions if need be. Also agreed upon are bookings of holiday time, vacations, offer of first option for care etc.
Outstanding: Finances.
Ex now wants to pull out of mediation stating that she was "bullied" into it.
Question:
What happens to the existing, signed interim agreement? Especially where it comes to matters of the impact of the girls schedule being reviewed by the counsellor?
Does the agreement still have standing? Could I proceed with a motion and simply transcribe the content of the existing interim agreement in as the matters it covered were already agreed to in principle?
Thanks for any thoughts,
