So i'm in the middle of trial.
We provide some texts to the other party but then my lawyer finds out that there are some texts missing and believes it's intentional.
Anyways, she's upset enough that she tries to stop representing me. And tells the judge she can no longer be on the case due to break-down of solicitor client relationship.
Obviously i cannot self-represent and after a lot of begging, she says only way she can continue representing me is to tell the judge what happened. She warns me that this would be extremely prejudicial to me. But I have no other option.
Adjournment is out of question as I can't afford to be dinged with costs. So we tell the judge that she realized what happened and that we cannot be relying on texts provided. Judge accepts and we continue trial.
How bad is this if i'm trying to get increased parenting time? Will the judge believe anything I have to say at all or just ignore everything given what happened?
I'm trying to get increased access.
