Here is the case information, would like some support as I am not a lawyer and self-representation is difficult for someone who hasn’t been through a family law trial process. Preliminary hearing was held. Case conference date is set in March.
Does the applicant have to supply the court with Form 17A: Case Conference Brief before March case conference, during or after? What forms should the applicant provide before the case conference? Facts are:
Applicant made a motion to change (Form 15, 15A) existing court order. Applicant requested:
1. Change in schedule (physical custody stay 65/35%) to change the day’s child is with either parent due to child entering school and applicant’s new employment.
2. Update child support for past 3 years (arrears) and monthly table amount as per new income.
The response from the respondent claims (Form 15B):
1. Equal 50/50 physical custody as per existing court order.
2. Update child support to reflect equal physical custody.
What documents would have to be submitted by the applicant to the court to disprove the respondent’s claims? When does the applicant file these forms? Before March case conference, during or after?
Would completing form 14A: Affidavit showing the existing court order calculates at 35%/65% and not 50/50 (it is simple math people) along with calendars for past 3 years showing when the child was actually with the applicant be sufficient?
Would completing form 14A: Affidavit showing a calculations sheet of child support arrears for the past 3 years based on respondents provided NOA’s along with FRO payment schedule and child support tables supporting documentation be sufficient?
The applicant has made an offer to settle and provided it to the respondent. At what time does the applicant provide this to the court? Before March case conference, during or after? What forms does the applicant use to present this offer to settle to the court? Form 6B: Affidavit of Service?
