I am literally shaking here.
Two weeks ago the court ordered ( interim) that ex allow me access to my son via telephone 4 times per week. I am to call him on the weekends and she is to use the calling card I sent and have my son call me at work on tuesdays and thursdays.
Today I made sure that at 4:00 ( the specific time as per the court order) I was available at work and made sure I wouldn't take any calls. At 4:45 there was still no call from my son. I knew she had the phone card because I sent it 14 days ago priority mail.
So, I called my son from work. When ex picked up the phone I asked her if she got the phone card and she said yes, but she sent it back to me!!! She said, very bitterly I might add, that she would not make Thomas call me at work.
I was shocked....she was court ordered to do this!!
I don't know what to do now. I obviously have to call my lawyer tomorrow....but the problem is that as per the court order, I am to call my son on the weekends ( last weekend went by and she did not answer the phone once despite 20 attempts per day) and she is saying she won't let my son call me during the week! Essentially she is refusing ALL contact.
So, my lawyer will probably have to send her lawyer a letter now, which will further cost me. She is getting legal aid so obviously she has unlimited use of her lawyer....but I'll pay an arm and a leg fighting this garbage!
What will most likely happen here? I mean, just because she's in receipt of legal aid, can she keep pulling this stuff which is completely unreasonable and which will cost me unnecessarily to fight? I can hardly believe that she would have unlimited use of a lawyer in this way? Obviously there is no court in the world who is going to allow her to do this.
I am so upset here. My boy has the chicken pox and I cannot even talk to him....when I do get to talk to him he sounds so happy to talk to me. What am I going to do?
