So, I called my ex's lawyer today to find out what's up basically, I need to file the confirmation with the court no less than 2 days before the court/motion date which is the 16th, which means I need to do it this week. Anywho, so I give him a call today only for him to tell me that he still hasn't talked to my ex outside of the first time to represent him, and another to book an appointment to finally meet him for the first time tomorrow.
I ask him if they plan to provide financial disclosure, he says he 'thinks' my ex will be filling one out. He also makes mention of not knowing if he will contest the custody, of course, this stops me in my tracks and the conversation continues as follows:
Me: *chuckling* you're telling me he's going to contest custody?
Him: well, I don't know
Me: you do realize that his partner was charged and there is a no contact order in place? (note: this information is in my affidavit he received yesterday & confirmed that he received)
Him: what were the charges?
Me: assault with a weapon on my then 8 yr old son
Him: is this still in court or possible plea state?
Me: no, she's already been sentenced since June - she can't be near the children, or the house, he can't have them at his place while she remains living with him
Him: *insert dead silence*....
Me: Hello?
Him: I will have to call you tomorrow after I have talked to your ex husband
....
I see yet more stalling in the near future.
